tires decreases riding stability
and can lead to loss of control.

The replacement of all wheel
and brake related parts, inclu-
ding the tires, should be left to
a Yamaha dealer, who has the
necessary professional know-
ledge and experience.

lity, and safe operation of your vehi-
cle, note the following points regar-
ding the specified wheels.

The wheel rims should be chec-
ked for cracks, bends, warpage
or other damage before each
ride. If any damage is found,
have a Yamaha dealer replace
the wheel. Do not attempt even
the smallest repair to the wheel.
A deformed or cracked wheel
must be replaced.

handling characteristics, and a
shortened tire life.
