Air Pressure
Under inflated tyres can also cause wheel
damage in rocky terrain. Over inflated tyres
make your motorcycle ride more harshly, are
more prone to damage from surface hazards
and wear unevenly.
Properly inflated tyres provide the best
combination of handling, tread life, and riding
comfort. Generally, under inflated tyres wear
unevenly, adversely affect handling, and are
more likely to fail from being overheated.
Make sure the valve stem caps are secure. If
necessary, install a new cap.
