WARNING

Operating the motorcycle with incorrect tires, incorrect pressure or excessively worn tires could cause loss of accident. Under inflation can cause a tire to overheat a tire failure. Only use tires approved by INDIAN MO for the model of the motorcycle. See your dealer information. Use of unapproved or an improperly mixed rear tire can result in decreased handling performance stability, potentially leading to reduced control of the m Always maintain proper tire pressure as recommended rider's manual and on safety labels.

TTIIRREE PPRREESSSUURREE

Improper tire pressure can result in irregular tire wear, tireincidul reduced fuel economy and a poor riding experience. It can also affect handling and stopping ability.

Slow tire pressure loss over time is normal for a functional tire. Although a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) will alert the user to a low pressure condition (if equipped), always inspect tire pressure and condition before each ride.

Check tire pressure before riding, when the tires are cold. This will provide the most accurate reading, as riding warms the tires and increases tire air pressure. Tires remain warm for at least 3 hours after a ride. Do not adjust tire pressure immediately after riding. As tires cool, the pressure will drop and result in underinflation. Always check and adjust tire pressure when tires are cold.

Using supplied air pressure gauge, adjust tire pressure to the recommended pressure. See page 122.
