FAQs

What is dual-compound technology?

Dual-compound technology means the tyre has a harder rubber compound in the center for durability and a softer compound on the edges for enhanced grip during cornering.

How often should I check my tyre pressure?

Check your tyre pressure at least once a week, and always before long rides. Also, check when the tyres are cold for accurate readings.

How long do these tyres typically last?

Tyre life depends on your riding style, road conditions, and how often you ride. Typically, you can expect a good lifespan, but regular inspection is essential.

Can I use these tyres on the track?

Yes, these tyres are suitable for track use, providing excellent grip and handling for sporty riding.

Where can I find the tyre size for my motorcycle?

You can find the correct tyre size in your motorcycle's owner's manual or on the sidewall of your current tyres.

What is the recommended storage for the tyres?

Store the tyres in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. Using tyre covers is recommended.

How do I know when to replace the tyres?

Replace the tyres when the tread depth is near the legal limit, or if you notice any cuts, bulges, or uneven wear patterns.

Troubleshooting

Tyre feels unstable or wobbly

Check tyre pressure and ensure it matches the manufacturer's recommendation. Also, inspect the tyres for any damage or uneven wear. If the issue persists, have a professional inspect your motorcycle's suspension.

Poor grip in wet conditions

Reduce your speed and ride more cautiously. Ensure your tyre pressure is correct. Check the tyre tread depth; if worn, consider replacing the tyre.

Check your motorcycle's alignment and suspension. Ensure proper tyre inflation. Adjust your riding style to reduce stress on the tyres.
