WARNING
• Have a Benelli dealer replace
excessively worn tires. Besides
being illegal, operating the vehi-
cle with excessively worn tires
decreases riding stability and can
lead to loss of control.
• The replacement of all wheel and
brake related parts, including the
tires, should be left to a Benelli
dealer, who has the necessary pro-
fessional knowledge and expe-
rience to do so.
• Ride at moderate speeds after
changing a tire since the tire sur-
face must first be "broken in" for it
to develop its optimal characteri-
stics.
Tires age, even if they have not been used
or have only been used occasionally.
Cracking of the tread and sidewall rubber,
sometimes accompanied by carcass de-
formation, is an evidence of ageing. Old
