Always check air pressure when your tyres
are “cold.” If you check air pressure when your
tyres are “warm” – even if your motorcycle
has only been ridden for a few miles – the
readings will be higher. If you let air out of
warm tyres to match the recommended cold
pressures, the tyres will be underinflated.
The recommended “cold” tyre pressures are:
Front
Rear
100 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm
2
,15 psi)
100 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm
2
,15 psi)
Inspection
Whenever you check the tyre pressures, you
should also examine the tyre treads and
sidewalls for wear, damage, and foreign
objects:
Look for:
•
Bumps or bulges in the side of the tyre or
the tread. Replace the tyre if you find any
bumps or bulges.
•
Cuts, splits or cracks in the tyre. Replace
the tyre if you can see fabric or cord.
•
Excessive tread wear.
Also, if you hit a pothole or hard object, pull
to the side of the road as soon as you safely
can and carefully inspect the tyres for
damage.
