2. The tires should be set to the recommend-
ed pressure:
Recommended tire pressure
Front 25 kPa (0.25 kgf/cm
2, 0.25 bar)
Rear 25 kPa (0.25 kgf/cm2, 0.25 bar)
Check and adjust tire pressures when the
tires are cold.
Tire pressures must be equal on both
sides.
3. Tire pressure below the minimum speci-
fied could cause the tire to dislodge from
the rim under severe riding conditions.
The following are minimums:
Front 22 kPa (0.22 kgf/cm
2, 0.22 bar)
Rear 22 kPa (0.22 kgf/cm2, 0.22 bar)
4. Use no more than the following pressures
when seating the tire beads.
Front 250 kPa (2.5 kgf/cm2, 2.5 bar)
Rear 250 kPa (2.5 kgf/cm2, 2.5 bar)
Higher pressures may cause the tire to
burst. Inflate the tires very slowly and
carefully. Fast inflation could cause the
tire to burst.
