Tire tread condition
Operating the motorcycle with excessively worn tires will decrease riding stability and consequently invite a dangerous situation. It is highly recommended to replace a tire when the remaining depth of tire tread reaches the following specification.
- 09900-20805: Tire depth gauge
Tire tread depth:
- Service Limit (FRONT): 1.6 mm (0.06 in)
- Service Limit (REAR): 2.0 mm (0.08 in)
Tire pressure
If the tire pressure is too high or too low, steering will be adversely affected and tire wear increased. Therefore, maintain the correct tire pressure for good road ability or shorter tire life will result. Cold inflation tire pressure is as follows.
COLD INFLATION TIRE PRESSURE | SOLO RINDING | DUAL RIDING | ||||
kPa | kgf/cm² | psi | kPa | kgf/cm² | psi | |
FRONT | 225 | 2.25 | 33 | 225 | 2.25 | 33 |
REAR | 250 | 2.50 | 36 | 280 | 2.80 | 41 |
Caution! The standard tire fitted on this motorcycle is 110/80 R19M/C (59H) for front and 150/70 R17M/C (69H) for rear. The use of tires other than those specified may cause instability. It is highly recommended to use a SUZUKI Genuine Tire.
