124 MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT
j
NOTE
Measure the tire pressure when the
tires are cold (that is, when the mo-
torcycle has not been ridden more
than a mile during the past 3 hours).
Tire pressure is affected by changes
in ambient temperature and altitude,
and so the tire pressure should be
checked and adjusted when your rid-
ing involves w ide variations in tem-
perature or altitude.
Tire Air Pressure (when cold)

psi)

Tire Wear, Damage
As the tire tread wears down, the tire
becomes more susceptible to puncture
and failure. An accepted estimate is
that 90% of a ll tire failures occur during
the last 10% of tread life (90% worn).
So it is false economy and unsafe to
use the tires until they are bald.
