Properly inflated tyres not only provide optimum traction and control, but also offer better fuel economy. To enjoy the best riding experience check tyre pressure every 15 days when the tyre is cold. The tyre is cold when your motorcycle has not been ridden for more than 2 hrs. Avoid checking the inflation pressure of the tyre after long running. If it is unavoidable, follow the vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations and add 4 PSI to the OE recommended pressure. Properly inflated tyres last longer.
Under Inflated tyre may
- Damage the tyre
- Cause adverse vehicle cornering
- Increase fuel consumption
Over Inflated tyre may cause
