Warning
Tyre pressures which have been reduced for off-road riding will impair on-road
stability. Always make sure that the tyre pressures are set as described in the tyre
pressure charts for on-road use.
Operation of the motorcycle with incorrect tyre pressures may cause loss of
motorcycle control leading to an accident.
Warning
The use of dual purpose tyres will result in reduced motorcycle stability. Always
operate a motorcycle equipped with dual purpose tyres at reduced speeds. The
permissible maximum speed must be indicated by a sticker, positioned so that it is
clearly visible to the rider. Operation of the motorcycle above the permissible
maximum speed may result in loss of motorcycle control and an accident.
