Maintenance
Tires
Operating the motorcycle with incorrect tires, incorrect tire pressure
or excessively worn tires could cause loss of control or accident.
Underinflation can cause a tire to overheat and result in a tire
failure. Always use the correct size and type of tires specified by
INDIAN MOTORCYCLE for your vehicle. Always maintain proper tire
pressure as recommended in the rider’s manual and on safety labels.
Tire Replacement
NOTICE: On models equipped with a TPMS, the sensors are located
180° from the valve stem. Use caution when servicing tires.
To avoid damaging a sensor, break the bead at the valve
stem, then at 90° and 270° from the valve stem as required.
Tires, rims, innertubes and air valves must be correctly
matched to wheel rims. Use only the proper size tires
specified with the same or higher load ratings. INDIAN
MOTORYCLE-recommended tires provide proper clearance
between fenders, swingarm, drive belts and other
components. See the Specifications section beginning on
page 133.
On models equipped with innertubes, innertubes MUST be
replaced with new innertubes when tires are replaced. Use
only the proper size innertubes.
WARNING! Mismatched tires, rims and air valves may result in
damage to the tire bead during mounting or may allow the tire to slip
off the rim, possibly resulting in tire failure.
Tire Condition
Inspect the tire sidewalls, road contact surface, and tread
base for cuts, punctures, and cracking. Replace damaged
tires immediately. See the INDIAN MOTORCYCLE Service
Manual or an authorized INDIAN MOTORCYCLE dealer.
Tire Tread Depth
Replace any tire with a tread depth of less than 1/16 inch (1.6
mm).
Tread wear indicators are located in at least six places on
the tread circumference and become visible at a tread
depth of approximately 1/16 inch (1.6 mm). The tread wear
indicators appear as a solid band across the tread.
You may also use a depth gauge or an accurate ruler to
measure the depth of the center tire tread on both front and
rear tires.
