Old tires, even if not completely worn
down, may become hard and provide
poor grip.
In this case, have the tires changed.
Have a tire changed when worn or
punctured, if the puncture in the tread is
larger than 5 mm.
Have the wheels balanced after each
tire repair.
Use only tires in the size suggested by
a p r i l i a , s e e p a g e 7 4 ( T E C H N I C A L
DATA).
Do not install tube tires on tubeless tire
rims or vice versa.
Always check that the caps are in place
on the valves, or the tires may deflate
suddenly.
Tire replacement and repair, as well as
wheel servicing and balancing are
delicate operations. They should be
carried out using adequate tools and
are best left to experienced mechanics.
Have your tires and wheels serviced at
an aprilia Authorized Dealer or a
specialized tire repairer.
New tires may be coated with an oily
film: ride carefully until covering
several kilometres. Never apply non-
specific products to the tires.
