Tires
and
Wheels
To insure maximum performance, long ser-
vice, and safe operation, note the
following
precautions:
1.
Check tire pressure before riding; adjust
as
necessary.
2.
Before operation, always check the tire
surfaces for wear
and/or
damage; look
for cracks, glass, nails, metal fragments,
stones, etc. Correct any such hazard
before riding.
3. Always inspect
the
wheels before a ride.
Place the motorcycle on the sidestand
and check
for
cracks, bends, or warpage
of
the wheels.
Do
not
attempt even
small repairs
to
the wheel. If a wheel
is
deformed or cracked, it must
be
replac-
ed.
4.
After
installing a tire, ride conservatively
to
allow the tire
to
seat itself on the rim
properly. Failure
to
allow proper seating
may cause tire
failure resulting in
damage
to
the
motorcycle and injury
to
the rider.
5.
After repairing
or
replacing a tire, check
to
be
sure the bead stopper locknut
is
securely fastened. If not, torque it
as
specified.
