TIRES

GENERAL
Tires should be inspected for punctures, cuts, breaks and
wear at least weekly.
New tires should be stored in a horizontal tire rack. Avoid
stacking new tires in a vertical stack. The weight of the stack
compresses the tires and closes down the beads.

WARNING
Replace punctured or damaged tires. In some cases,
small punctures in the tread area may be repaired from
within the demounted tire by your Harley-Davidson
dealer. Speed should NOT exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) for
the first 24 hours after repair, and the repaired tire should
NEVER be used over 80 mph (130 km/h). Failure to follow
this warning could result in death or serious injury.
(00015a).
Tubeless tires may be repaired in the tread area only if the
puncture is 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) or smaller. All repairs must be
made from inside the tire.
Acceptable repair methods include a patch and plug combi-
nation, chemical or hot vulcanizing patches or head-type
plugs. When repairing tubeless tires, use TIRE SPREADER
(Part No. HD-21000) to spread the tire sidewalls.
