Inspection
Harley Davidson tires are equipped with wear bars that run
horizontally across the tread. When wear bars become
visible and only 1/32 in. (0.8 mm) tread depth remains,
replace tire immediately. Using a worn tire can adversely
affect stability and handling, which could result in death or
serious injury. Use only Dunlop Harley Davidson
replacement tires. (00090a)
See Tire Sidewall. Arrows on tire sidewalls pinpoint location of wear bar indicators.
Tread wear indicator bars will appear on tire tread surfaces when 1/32 in. (0.8 mm) or less of tire
tread remains. See Tread Surface. Always replace tires before the tread wear indicator bars
appear.
When To Replace Tires
New tires are needed if any of the following conditions exist:
1. Tread wear indicator bars become visible on the tread surfaces.
2. Tire cords or fabric become visible through cracked sidewalls, snags or deep cuts.
3. A bump, bulge or split in the tire.
4. Puncture, cut or other damage to the tire that cannot be repaired.
