TIRE
INFLATION
Correct
tire
pressure
is
very
impor
tant
for
steering
ease
and
riding
com
fort
Correct
pressure
also
makes
for
a
quieter
ride
and
extends
tire
life
If
all
tires
are
inspected
frequently
and
maintained
at
correct
pressure
any
sharp
objects
in
tread
can
be
quickiy
detected
nd
abnormal
wear
which
invites
serious
problems
can
be
avoided
After
inflating
tires
valves
should
be
checked
for
leakage
Without
valve
caps
leakage
will
occur
due
to
dirt
and
water
resulting
in
underinflation
Ac
cordingly
whenever
tire
pressure
is
checked
be
sure
to
tighten
vaive
caps
firmly
by
hand
