Motorcycle tire review and tips especially for Yamaha Royal Star Boulevard 1300 1997 on tires

• Steady, Now: Although it primarily affects handling, improper balance can also shorten a tire's life. Check it after 500 or 1000 miles of use.


• Stay Smooth: This is common sense--avoid potholes and sharp objects on the road that can compromise your tire's integrity. The same goes for curbs.


• 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.


• Never inflate a tire beyond the maximum inflation as noted on the tire sidewall. Inflate your tires when they are cold, and be aware that a cooler day may also require you to recheck the inflation pressures due to a change in outside air temperature.


• Motorcycle tires work in much more brutal environment then car tires. Because of many factors such as load carried, horsepower and torque produced, and this being applied to a contact surface that is very small by comparison, one can understand why the tires are not only expensive but also work in a much more demanding environment. Therefore keeping the tire pressure correct and routine tire inspection is critical.
