Tires
To safely operate your Enertia, your tires must be the proper type and size, in good condition with
adequate tread, and correctly inflated for the load you are carrying.
The following gives detailed information on how and when to check your air pressure, how to
inspect your tires for wear and damage, and our recommendations for tire repair and replacement.
Air Pressure
(
Refer to Safety Precautions on pages 44 & 45
)
Properly inflated tires provide the best combination of handling, tread life, and riding comfort.
Generally, underinflated tires wear unevenly, adversely affect handling, and are more likely to fail from
being overheated. Overinflated tires make your Enertia ride harshly, are more prone to damage from road hazards, and wear unevenly.
We recommend that you visually check your tires before every ride and use an air pressure gauge to measure the air pressure at least once a month or
any time you think the tires might be low.
Tubeless tires have some degree of self-sealing ability if they are punctured. However, because leakage is often very slow, you should look closely for
punctures whenever a tire is not fully inflated.
Always check air pressure when your tires are “cold” – after the Enertia has been parked for at least three hours. If you check air pressure when your tires
are “warm” – even if your Enertia has only been ridden for a few miles – the readings will be higher. If you let air out of warm tires to match the
recommended cold pressures, the tires will be underinflated.
The recommended “cold” tire pressures are:
