Cast wheelsTo maximize the performance, durabil-

note the following points regarding the
specified wheels.
 The wheel rims should be
checked for cracks, bends, warp-
age or other damage before each
ride. If any damage is found, have
a Yamaha dealer replace the
wheel. Do not attempt even the
smallest repair to the wheel. A de-
formed or cracked wheel must be
replaced.

unbalanced wheel can result in
poor performance, adverse han-
dling characteristics, and a short-
