WARNING
Operating the motorcycle with incorrect tires, incorrect tire
pressure or excessively worn tires could cause loss of control or
accident. Underinflation can cause a tire to overheat and result in
a tire failure. Only use tires approved by INDIAN MOTORCYCLE
for the model of the motorcycle. See your dealer. Use of
unapproved or an improperly mixed front and rear tire can result
in decreased handling performance and stability, potentially
leading to reduced control of the motorcycle. Always maintain
proper tire pressure as recommended in the rider’s manual and
on safety labels.

Improper tire pressure can result in irregular tire wear, tire failure,
reduced fuel economy and a poor riding experience. It can also
affect handling and stopping ability.
Slow tire pressure loss over time is normal for a functional tire.
Always inspect tire pressure and condition before each ride.
Check tire pressure before riding, when the tires are cold. This will
provide the most accurate reading, as riding warms the tires and
increases tire air pressure. Tires remain warm for at least 3 hours
after a ride. Do not adjust tire pressure immediately after riding.
As tires cool, the pressure will drop and result in underinflation.
Always check and adjust tire pressure when tires are cold.
Using a good quality pocket-style gauge, adjust tire pressure to the
recommended pressure.
