What does 'TL' mean in the tyre description?

How should I maintain this tyre for optimal lifespan?

Regularly check tire pressure, inspect for damage, keep it clean, and ensure it is properly balanced. Adhering to the load and speed ratings is also crucial.

Where can I find the correct tire pressure?

The recommended tire pressure for your motorcycle can be found in your motorcycle's owner's manual or on a sticker located on the motorcycle frame, typically near the rear shock or chain guard.

Troubleshooting

Tire vibration or imbalance

Ensure the tyre was properly balanced during installation. Check for any foreign objects stuck in the tread. If issues persist, have the tyre re-balanced by a professional.

Reduced grip in wet conditions

Verify the tyre is not excessively worn. Check tire pressure, as under or over-inflation can affect contact patch. Ensure the tread is clear of debris.

Premature wear

Check tire pressure regularly and ensure it is within the recommended range. Avoid aggressive acceleration and braking. Ensure the motorcycle's suspension is properly aligned.
