tires. It is important that they be inflated
correctly and maintained at the proper
pressures.
• TIRE CHARACTERISTICS

dling of ATVs. The tires listed below
have been approved by Yamaha Motor
Co., Ltd. for this model. If other tire com-
binations are used, they can adversely
affect your machine’s handling charac-
teristics and are therefore not recom-
mended.

Front 30.0 kPa (0.300 kgf/cm², 4.4 psi)
Rear 25.0 kPa (0.250 kgf/cm², 3.6 psi)
2) Tire pressure below the minimum speci-
fication could cause the tire to dislodge
from the rim under severe riding condi-
tions.
The following are minimums:
Front 27.0 kPa (0.270 kgf/cm², 4.0 psi)
Rear 22.0 kPa (0.220 kgf/cm², 3.2 psi)
