Cast wheels

To maximize the performance, durabil- ity, and safe operation of your motor- cycle, note the following points regarding the specified wheels.

The wheel rims should be checked for cracks, bends or warpage be- fore each ride. If any damage is found, have a Yamaha dealer re- place the wheel. Do not attempt even the smallest repair to the wheel. A deformed or cracked wheel must be replaced.

The wheel should be balanced whenever either the tire or wheel has been changed or replaced. An unbalanced wheel can result in poor performance, adverse han- dling characteristics, and a short- ened tire life.

Ride at moderate speeds after changing a tire since the tire sur- face must first be “broken in” for it to develop its optimal characteris- tics.
