Measuring the tire pressure
Use the low-pressure tire gauge.
TIP
The low-pressure tire gauge is included as stan-
dard equipment. Make two measurements of the
tire pressure and use the second reading. Dust or
dirt in the gauge could cause the first reading to be
incorrect.
●
The tires should be set to the recommend-
ed pressure:
Recommended tire pressure:
Front:
27.5 kPa (0.275 kgf/cm
2
, 4.0 psi)
Rear:
30.0 kPa (0.300 kgf/cm
2
, 4.4 psi)
●
Check and adjust tire pressures when
the tires are cold.
●
Tire pressures must be equal on both
sides.
●
Tire pressure below the minimum speci-
fied could cause the tire to dislodge from
the rim under severe riding conditions.
Minimum tire pressure:
Front:
24.5 kPa (0.245 kgf/cm
2
, 3.6 psi)
Rear:
27.0 kPa (0.270 kgf/cm
2
, 4.0 psi)
●
Use no more than the following pressures
when seating the tire beads.
●
Maximum tire seating pressure:
Front:
250 kPa (2.5 kgf/cm
2
, 36 psi)
Rear:
250 kPa (2.5 kgf/cm
2
, 36 psi)
Higher pressures and fast inflation may
cause a tire to burst. Inflate the tires very
slowly and carefully.
