WARNING
An improperly repaired, installed, or
balanced tire can cause loss of con-
trol and an accident, or can wear out
sooner.
• Ask your Suzuki dealer or a quali-
fied mechanic to perform tire
repair, replacement, and balancing
because proper tools and experi-
ence are required.
• Install tires according to the rota-
tion direction shown by arrows on
the sidewall of each tire.

WARNING
Failure to follow the instructions
below for tubeless tires may result in
an accident due to tire failure. Tube-
less tires require different service pro-
cedures than tube tires.
• Tubeless tires require an air-tight seal
between the tire bead and wheel rim.
Special tire irons and rim protectors or
a specialized tire mounting machine
must be used for removing and install-
ing tires to prevent tire or rim damage
which could result in an air leak.
• Repair punctures in tubeless tires
by removing the tire and applying an
internal patch.
