MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT 169

/!\\ WARNING

Tires that have been punctured
and repaired do not have the
same capabilities as undam-
aged tires and can suddenly fail,
causing an accident resulting
in serious injury or death. Re-
place damaged tires as soon as
possible. To ensure safe han-
dling and stability, use only the
recommended standard tires for
replacement, inflated to the stan-
dard pressure. If it is necessary
to ride on a repaired tire, do not
exceed 100 km/h (60 mph) until
the tire is replaced.

NOTE

O Most countries may have their own

regulations requiring a minimum tire
tread depth; be sure to follow them.
