Inflating the Tires
Tires are inflated when shipped, but they invariably lose some pressure between the point of manufacturing
and your purchase.
WARNING:
Failing to
properly adjust and tighten the nuts
and bolts that affix the fork can
cause you to lose control and fall.
WARNING:
Do not over inflate, as this could
damage tire or wheel.
Note:
The pressurized air supplies
found at gasoline stations are
designed to inflate high-volume
automobile tires. If you decide to
use such an air supply to inflate your
motor bike tires, first make sure the
pressure gauge is working, then
use very short bursts to inflate to
the correct PSI. If you inadvertently
over-inflate the tire, release the
excess pressure immediately.
1
Using a bicycle-style tire
pump equipped for a Schrader-
type valve, inflate the front tire to
the correct PSI indicated on the
sidewall of the tire.
