2. The tires should be set to the rec-
ommended pressure:
●
Recommended tire pressure
Front 70 kPa (0.70 kgf/cm
2
, 10 psi)
Rear 98 kPa (0.98 kgf/cm
2
, 14 psi)
Check and adjust tire pressures when
the tires are cold.
Tire pressures must be equal on both
sides.
3. Tire pressure below the minimum
specified could cause the tire to
dislodge from the rim under severe
riding conditions. The following are
minimums:
Front 63 kPa (0.63 kgf/cm
2
, 9 psi)
Rear 91 kPa (0.91 kgf/cm
2
, 13 psi)
4. Use no more than the following
pressures when seating the tire
beads.
Front 250 kPa (2.5 kgf/cm
2
, 36 psi)
Rear 250 kPa (2.5 kgf/cm
2
, 36 psi)
Higher pressures may cause the
tire to burst. Inflate the tires very
slowly and carefully. Fast inflation
could cause the tire to burst.
