MAINTENANCE

WARNING

Failure to follow these warnings may result in an
accident due to tire failure. The tires on your scooter
are a crucial link between your scooter and the road.
You and your passenger's personal safety are
dependant upon the condition of your scooter's tires.
Follow these instructions:

Tires

Failure to perform a reasonable break-in of the tires
could cause tire slip and loss of control.
Use extra care when riding on new tires as the grip
will be limited. Perform proper break-in of the tires, as
stated in the break-in recommendation section of this
manual. Avoid hard acceleration, hard cornering, and
hard braking for the first 100 miles (160 km).

Check tire condition and pressure, and adjust the
inflation pressure before each ride.

Avoid overloading your scooter.

Replace a tire when worn to the specified limit, or if you
find any damage such as cuts or cracks.

Always use the proper size and type of tires as
specified in this Owner's Manual.

Balance the wheel after tire installation.

Read this section of Owner's Manual carefully.

NOTE: Check the tire inflation pressure and tire

tread condition at the periods listed in the periodic
maintenance schedule. For maximum safety and
good tire life, the tire pressures should be
inspected more often.

Insufficient air pressure in the tires not only
accelerates tire wear but it also affects the stability
of your scooter. Under-inflated tires make smooth
cornering difficult and overinflated tires decrease
the amount of tire in contact with the ground, which
can lead to skids and loss of control. Make sure
that the tire pressures on your scooter are within
the specified limits at all times.

Tire pressure

NOTE: Tire pressure should only be adjusted

when the tires are cold.

Front tire (rider only): 21.3 PSI (1.5 kgf/cm )

Rear tire (rider only): 28.4 PSI (2.0 kgf/cm )

Front tire (rider & passenger):24.9 PSI (1.75 kgf/cm )

Rear tire (rider & passenger): 32.0 PSI (2.25 kgf/cm )
