Tires
Tires are the only contact between the
vehicle and the ground. Safety in all
conditions of riding depends on a rela-
tively small area of contact. Therefore,
it is essential to maintain the tires in
good condition at all times and replace
them at the appropriate time with the
specified tires.
Tire air pressure
The tire air pressure should be
checked and, if necessary, adjusted
before each ride.
