A2Difficulty 1/5

When using new motorcycle tyres on the road, which practice supports safe initial adaptation according to the manufacturer’s instructions?

Correct answer

Ride gently and progressively following the manufacturer.

Ride gently initially and increase demands progressively according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Check the recommended cold pressure, fitting and condition. No mileage or temperature guarantees the best grip for every tyre and condition. Do not overinflate, deflate or weave to try to warm them; always adapt riding to the available grip.
