TIRE INFLATION

WARNING
1
WARNING
Use only Buell approved tires. See a Buell dealer. Using
non-approved tires can adversely affect stability, which
could result in death or serious injury. (00133a)

WARNING
1
WARNING
Do not inflate tire beyond maximum pressure as speci-
fied on sidewall. Over inflated tires can blow out, which
could result in death or serious injury. (00027a)
Check tire pressure and tread:
●
Before every ride.
Check for proper front and rear tire pressures when tires are
cold. Compare pressure against
Table 1-7.
TIRE REPLACEMENT
See
Figure 1-18.
Treadwear indicator bars will appear on tire
tread surfaces when 1/32 in. (0.8 mm) or less of tire tread
remains. Arrows on tire sidewalls pinpoint location of wear
bar indicators. Always remove tires from service before they
reach the treadwear indicator bars (1/32 in. [0.8 mm] tread
pattern depth remaining).
New tires are needed if any of the following conditions exist.
1.
Tire wear indicator bars become visible on the tread sur-
faces.
2.
Tire cords or fabric become visible through cracked side-
walls, snags or deep cuts.
3.
A bump, bulge or split in the tire.
4.
Puncture, cut or other damage to the tire that cannot be
repaired.
WHEEL BEARINGS
1
WARNING
1
WARNING
Never use compressed air to “spin-dry” bearings. Very
high bearing speeds can damage unlubricated bearings.
Spinning bearings with compressed air can also cause a
bearing to fly apart, which could result in death or seri-
ous injury.
Check front and rear wheel bearings for wear:
●
Every time a wheel is removed.
●
When storing or removing the motorcycle for the season.
Check wheel bearings for wear and corrosion. Excessive play
or roughness indicates worn bearings. Replace bearings in
sets only.
