CHECKING THE TIRES
The following procedure applies to both of the
tires.
1. Check:
• Tire pressure
Out of specification → Regulate.
WARNING
EWA13180
• The tire pressure should only be checked
and regulated when the tire temperature
equals the ambient air temperature.
• The tire pressure and the suspension must
be adjusted according to the total weight
(including cargo, rider, passenger and ac-
cessories) and the anticipated riding
speed.
• Operation of an overloaded vehicle could
cause tire damage, an accident or an injury.
NEVER OVERLOAD THE VEHICLE.
WARNING
EWA13190
It is dangerous to ride with a worn-out tire.
When the tire tread reaches the wear limit, re-
place the tire immediately.
2. Check:
• Tire surfaces
Damage/wear → Replace the tire.
Direction “a” (turn in)
Compression damping is increased
(suspension is harder).
Direction “b” (turn out)
Compression damping is decreased
(suspension is softer).
