SPOKE NIPPLE TIGHTNESS
Check the tension to verify the tightness
of the spoke nipples. The tension of the
spokes can be checked by squeezing
the spokes with your fingers. If a spoke
nipple is loose, the spoke will bend
more than the others. The tension can
also be checked by hitting the spokes
with a small metal bar. If the spoke nip-
ple is loose, its sound will be dull.
!WARNING
An improperly repaired, installed, or bal-
anced tire can cause loss of control or
shorten tire life.
• Ask your SUZUKI dealer or qualified
mechanic to perform tire repair, replace-
ment, and balancing because proper
tools and experience are required.
• Install tires according to the rotation
direction shown by arrows on the side-
wall of each tire.
