TYRES
Tyre pressure:
Check the tyre pressure atleast once in a week if not more
frequently. Insufficient air pressure in the tyres not only
hasten tyre wear, but also seriously affects the stability of
the vehicle. Lower tyre pressure consumes more fuel.
Under inflated tyres make smooth cornering difficult and
over inflated tyres decrease the tyre contact with the
ground which can lead to skidding and loss of control. Be
sure that the tyre pressure is within the specified limit at all
times.

Operating the vehicle with excessively wornout tyres will
decrease riding stability and can lead to loss of control. It is
recommended to replace the tyre when the tyre wears off to
the tyre wear indicator level (indicated by TWI on the tyre).
