Spoke wheels
To maximize the performance, durabi-
lity, and safe operation of your
motorcycle, note the following points
regarding the specified wheels.
G
The wheel rims should be chec-
ked for cracks, bends or warpa-
ge, and the spokes for looseness
or damage before each ride. If
any damage is found, have a
Yamaha dealer replace the whe-
el. Do not attempt even the sma-
llest repair to the wheel. A defor-
med or cracked wheel must be
replaced.
G
The wheel should be balanced
whenever either the tire or wheel
has been changed or replaced.
An unbalanced wheel can result
in poor performance, adverse
handling characteristics, and a
shortened tire life.
G
Ride at moderate speeds after
changing a tire since the tire sur-
face must first be “broken in” for
it to develop its optimal characte-
ristics.
