Tire Inflation Pressure
Original equipment tires should be maintained at the following pressures (measured when the tire is cold, not
immediately following road use):
Solo Front: 32 p.s.i. Rear: 35 p.s.i.
Solo plus one passenger* Front: 32 p.s.i. Rear: 40 p.s.i.
*on properly equipped models
Tire Condition
In addition to tire inflation pressure, the general condition of your motorcycle’s tires is very important to continuously
monitor and maintain:
•
NEVER USE DAMAGED OR REPAIRED TIRES. Once your motorcycle’s tire(s) has been compromised, it is
unsafe, should never be reused, and must be replaced with a new tire(s).
•
NEVER INDISCRIMINATELY REPLACE A WORN TIRE WITH JUST ANY NEW TIRE. Replacement new
tires should be the same as original equipment tires. Selection of an improper replacement tire could cause
unstable vehicle operation.
•
Always have a qualified professional replace your motorcycle’s tires. Special procedures and tools are
required to properly and safely install, maintain and replace tires, tubes and wheels.
•
Operating your motorcycle with excessively or unevenly worn, improperly inflated or unbalanced tires can
affect motorcycle stability and may result in serious injury.
•
Avoid objects such as curbs, potholes, etc. It is possible for a tire to experience severe internal damage in
such situations without exhibiting any outward signs. Always have such tires removed and inspected, inside
and out for possible damage before re-operating your vehicle with such tires. If ever in doubt of a tire's
stability for safe operation, replace it with a new tire. Never take chances on a questionable tire.
WHEELS
Check both wheels for cracks or dents. If possible, lift the wheel off the ground and spin it, otherwise walk the
motorcycle around. Watch its motion and listen for noise. Also, move it from side to side to check for looseness.
WHEEL BEARINGS
Wheel bearings and neck bearings should be inspected at each recommended inspection and maintenance interval.
Unless deemed necessary to repack these bearings at more frequent intervals, all bearings should be repacked at
10,000 mile intervals or once annually whichever comes first.
Rough operation or excessive play in bearings should be immediately inspected and either replaced or repacked.
Repacking procedures should always include use of the proper lubricant and installation of new seals.
FASTENERS
Check for loose or missing nuts, bolts or cotter pins. If you keep the motorcycle clean, it is easier to spot missing
parts. Refer to Specification for recommended fastener torque (tightness).
WARNING
YOUR NEW HIGH PERFORMANCE MOTORCYCLE IS SUBJECT TO VIBRATION DURING USE UNDER
ALL OPERATING CONDITIONS. BOLTS, FASTENERS, CABLES AND FIXTURES SUCH AS LIGHTS
ETC. SHOULD BE INSPECTED FREQUENTLY AND TIGHTENED OR REPLACED, IF NECESSARY, TO
ENSURE THE SAFE AND DEPENDABLE OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE. CERTAIN MODELS, SUCH AS
THOSE BUILT ON RIGID FRAMES, ARE SUBJECT TO GREATER VIBRATION, AND FASTENERS AND
FIXTURES MUST BE CHECKED EVEN MORE FREQUENTLY TO ENSURE SAFETY AND PROPER
OPERATION.
