Motorcycle tire review and tips especially for Kawasaki KLR 600 E tires

• Top It Off: The valve stem cap should be securely fastened on the stem, because it's an important part of your tire's sealing system. It'll give you extra security at high speeds, when centrifugal force can conspire to open the valve inside the stem.


• Scuff 'Em Up: Optimal grip is obtained only after the tread surface has been ridden on, so go into those first few twisties with a bit of caution. The suggested break-in distance is usually 100 or so miles. After that, check the tire's pressure again!


• When riding for long distances monitor tire pressure every morning when tires are cold. Then check tire pressure after a few hours of use. More than a 10% increase in inflation means the tire is working too hard. Lighten the load, decrease speed, or add air to the tires so they run cooler.


• Use a digital pressure gauge if possible or ensure your pencil stick gauge is accurate. Look into a tire sensor to warn of low air.


• Remember cold weather means air in the tires contracts and may require additional air. High temperatures, hot or rough road surfaces, high speeds and heavy loads all cause the tire to work harder and hotter. Make sure tire pressure is sufficient to deal with these conditions. Also under inflation is the number one cause of tire failure.
