Fitting new tyres

3 When selecting new tyres, ensure that front and rear tyre types are compatible, the correct size and correct speed rating; if necessary seek advice from a tyre fitting specialist (see illustration).

4 It is recommended that tyres are fitted by a motorcycle tyre specialist rather than attempted in the home workshop. This is particularly relevant In the case of tubeless tyres because the force required to break the seal between the wheel rim and tyre bead is substantial, and is usually beyond the capabilities of an individual working with normal tyre levers. Additionally. the specialist will be able to balance the wheels after tyre fitting.

5 Note that punctured tubeless tyres can In some cases be repaired, but such repairs must be carried out by a tyre fitting specialist.
