Service and Maintenance for Front and Rear Tires
Prior to riding always inspect the tires. Make sure the front and
rear tire are filled to their recommended pressure. Always check
air pressure when tires are cold. Proper tire inflation increases
riding comfort and the stability of the vehicle while prolonging the
service life of the tires. Air pressure should be checked when tires
are cold.

Removal and Installation of Front Wheel
* With the engine off, place the vehicle on the center kickstand.
* Remove the nut off the front wheel bolt. Slide the bolt out
while making sure to retain all hardware including wheel
spacers, and speedometer hub.
Caution:
* Do not use the front brake with the wheel removed.
* Check fluid level and top off if needed. Verify that the wheel
spins freely with no brake drag.
WARNING:
* Always re-torque the front wheel nut to 40-50 ft. lbs.
Check the air pressure of the tire and visually inspect the rubber
tire and rim for excessive wear or defects. If there are any issues,
the tire should be replaced at a local authorized service center.
Failure to properly torque the front wheel
nut can lead to serious injury!
