use and maintenance Pegaso 650 I.E. STRADA - TRAIL
TYRES
STRADA model is equipped with tubeless
tires; TRAIL model is provided with tires
with tube.
NOTE Carry out the maintenance
operations halving the intervals indicated, if
the vehicle is used in rainy or dusty areas
or on uneven surfaces.
WARNING
Check the inflation pressure at room
temperature every two weeks.
Check the conditions of the tyres and
the inflation pressure at room
temperature every 1000 km (625 mi),
see page 90 (TECHNICAL DATA).
WARNING
Periodically check the tyre inflation
pressure at room temperature, see page
90 (TECHNICAL DATA).
If the tyres are hot, the measurement is
not correct.
Carry out the measurement especially
before and after long rides.
If the inflation pressure is too high, the
ground unevenness cannot be
dampened and is therefore transmitted
to the handlebar, thus compromising
the driving comfort and reducing the
road holding during turns.
If, on the contrary, the inflation pressure
is too low, the tyre sides (1) are under
greater stress and the tyre itself may
slip on the rim or it may become loose,
with consequent loss of control of the
vehicle.
In case of sudden braking the tyres
could even come off the rims.
Further, the vehicle could skid while
turning.
WARNING
Check the surface and the wear of the
tyres, since tyres in bad conditions can
impair both the grip and the vehicle
handling.
Some types of tyres homologated for
this vehicle are provided with wear
indicators.
There are several kinds of wear
indicators. For more information on
how to check the wear, contact your
Dealer.
Visually check if the tyres are worn and
in this case have them changed.
Change the tyre when it is worn out or
in case of puncture on the tread side, if
the puncture is larger than 5 mm.
After repairing a tyre, have the wheels
balanced.
WARNING
The tyres must be replaced with other
tyres of the type and model
recommended by the manufacturer, see
page 90 (TECHNICAL DATA); the use of
tyres different from those prescribed
may adversely affect the
manoeuvrability of the vehicle.
Do not install tyres with air tube on rims
for tubeless tyres and vice versa.
Make sure that the inflation valves (2)
always have their sealing caps on, to
prevent the tyres from suddenly going
flat.
Change, repair, maintenance and
balancing operations are very important
and therefore they must be performed
by qualified technicians with
appropriate tools.
