Spoke wheels

WARNING

EWA10610

The wheels on this model are not de-

signed for use with tubeless tires.

Do not attempt to use tubeless tires

on this model.

To maximize the performance, durabil-

ity, and safe operation of your motorcy-

cle, note the following points regarding

the specified wheels.

● The wheel rims should be checked

for cracks, bends or warpage, and

the spokes for looseness or dam-

age before each ride. If any dam-

age is found, have a Yamaha

dealer replace 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.
