NOTE
Specifications in this publication may not match those of official certification in some markets due to timing of publication printing, variance in testing methods, and/or vehicle differences. Customers seeking officially recognized regulatory specifications for their vehicle should refer to certification documents, contact their respective dealer or distributor or visit www.h-d.com.
WARNING
Do not exceed the motorcycle's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). Exceeding these weight ratings can lead to component failure and adversely affect stability, handling and performance, which could result in death or serious injury. (00016f)
NOTE
The maximum additional weight allowed on the motorcycle equals the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) minus the running weight. For example, a motorcycle with GVWR of 544 kg (1,200 lb) having a running weight of 363 kg (800 lb), would allow a maximum of an additional 181 kg (400 lb) combined weight of the rider, passenger, riding gear, cargo and installed accessories.

  • Tire pressures vary with changes in ambient and tire temperature. Check pressure with tires cold (20 °C (68 °F)). Increase tire pressure by 6.9 kPa (1 psi) for every 5.6 °C (10 °F) in ambient air temperature above this point.
  • Do not use the TPMS as a pressure gauge when adding or removing air from a tire. Sensor data is sent to the TPMS at varying intervals which does not refresh immediately when adding or removing air from the tire. Over-inflation or under-inflation can result.
  • The TPMS sensor will not communicate pressures above 345–414 kPa (50.0–60.0 psi) depending on altitude.
  • Air is used to calibrate the TPMS. Use of 100 percent nitrogen does affect the accuracy of the system.
  • Do not rotate valve stems from their properly installed position. Can affect the valve stem seal and result in a slow leak.
  • Do not use liquid tire balancers or sealing agents in wheels with a TPMS sensor. Damage to the sensor can result.
