Tyres Front tire pressure: 225 kPa - 32.63 PSI (2.25 bar - 2.29 kg/cm2). Rear tire pressure: 250 kPa - 30.46 PSI (2.50 bar - 2.55 kg/cm2). REPAIRING OR REPLACING TIRES In the event of a tiny puncture, tubeless tires will take a long time to deflate, as they tend to keep air inside. If you find the pressure low in one tire, check the tire for punctures. Because tire pressure is affected by temperature and altitude variations, you are advised to check and adjust it whenever you are riding in areas where ample variations in temperature or altitude occur. Check and set tire pressure when tires are cold. To avoid front wheel rim distortion, when riding on bumpy roads, increase tire pressure by 0.2 - 0.3 bar. Important Punctured tires must be replaced. Replace tires with recommended standard tires only. Be sure to tighten the valve caps securely to avoid leaks when riding. Never use tube type tires. Failure to heed this warning may lead to sudden tire blowout and serious danger to rider and passenger. After replacing a tire, the wheel must be balanced. Attention Do not remove or shift the wheel balancing weights. Attention 150

If you find the pressure low in one tire, check the tire
for punctures.
Attention
Punctured tires must be replaced. Replace tires
with recommended standard tires only. Be sure to
tighten the valve caps securely to avoid leaks when
riding. Never use tube type tires. Failure to heed this
warning may lead to sudden tire blowout and serious
danger to rider and passenger.
After replacing a tire, the wheel must be balanced.
Attention
Do not remove or shift the wheel balancing
weights.
