Wheels And Tires
Inspect both wheels for the following:
Bent, loose, or missing spokes
Bent or cracked rims
Impact marks on the rims
Inspect both tires for the following:
Cuts, cracks, splits, or missing tread lugs in the tread or
sidewall area
Bumps or bulges within the tire body
Uneven tire tread wear. Wear on one side of the tire
tread or flat spots in the tire tread indicate a problem
with the tire or motorcycle.
Exposed tire thread or cords
If either of the wheels or tires are found to have any of the
above conditions, replace the wheel and tire immediately.
Tire Inflation
CAUTION: Under-inflation is the most common cause of
tire failure and may result in severe tire cracking, tread
separation, “blowout,” or unexpected loss of motorcycle
control causing personal injury and possible death.
Tire pressure should be checked and adjusted before each
ride. Tire pressure is checked using an accurate gauge
when the tires are cold. This means that the tires have not
been ridden on for 3 hours. Always replace the valve stem
cap when finished.
