By contrast, if inflation pressure is too low, the
tire walls are placed under greater stress, and
the tire may slip on the rim or become loose,
with consequent loss of control of the vehicle.
In case of sudden braking, the tires could even
come off the rims.
Furthermore, the vehicle could skid while
cornering.
Check the surface and the wear of the tires:
tires in poor condition can impair both grip and
vehicle handling.
Change the tire when it is worn or in case of
puncture on the tread side, if the puncture is
larger than 5 mm (0.197 in).
After repairing a tire, have the wheels balanced.
Only use tires of the size indicated, see
(TECHNICAL DATA).
Make sure that the inflation valves always have
their sealing caps on to prevent the tires from
suddenly going flat.
Tire replacement and repair, as well as wheel
servicing and balancing are delicate operations
that should be carried out using adequate tools
and are best left to experienced mechanics.
For this reason, it is advisable to have the
above operations carried out by an aprilia
Authorized Dealer or by a qualified tire repairer.
If the tires are new, they may still be covered
with a slippery film: ride carefully for the first
several miles. Do not oil the tires with
unsuitable fluids.
Old tires, even if not completely worn down,
may become hard and provide poor grip.
Replace them if this is the case.
