the manufacturer. This motorbike can and is intended to move and it is therefore possible to lose control, fall off and/or get into dangerous

not recommended to use pressurized system similar to the ones found
at gas stations as these are designed to inate automobile tires that
have much higher air capacity volumes.

tire to the recommended PSI called out on the tire. Replace the
valve cap.
ENSURE REAR TIRE IS AT THE CORRECT PSI BEFORE
RIDING THE MOTORBIKE.
