WARNING
Operating the motorcycle with incorrect tires, incorrect tire
pressure or excessively worn tires could cause loss of control or
accident. Under-inflation can cause a tire to overheat and result
in a tire failure. Always use the correct size and type of tires
specified by INDIAN MOTORCYCLE for your vehicle. Always
maintain proper tire pressure as recommended in the rider’s
manual and on safety labels.

NOTICE
On models equipped with a TPMS, the sensors are located 180°
from the valve stem. Use caution when servicing tires. To avoid
damaging a sensor, break the bead at the valve stem, then at 90°
and 270° from the valve stem as required.
Tires, rims, innertubes and air valves must be correctly matched to
wheel rims. Use only the proper size tires specified with the same
or higher load ratings. INDIAN MOTORCYCLE-recommended tires
provide proper clearance between fenders, swingarm, drive belts
and other components. See the Specifications chapter.
On models equipped with innertubes, innertubes MUST be
replaced with new innertubes when tires are replaced. Use only
the proper size innertubes.
