Chassis and Wheels<br />
The new die-cast aluminum wheels with<br />
their five double spokes radiate dynamic<br />
performance and are visually supported by<br />
the powerful large tires.<br />
The rear wheel measures 4.0 x 15 with tire<br />
measuring 170/80 VR 15 for good traction,<br />
high mileage and ride comfort.<br />
The wheel is screwed directly to the rear<br />
axle with four wheel-bolts enabling the<br />
wheel to be removed easily once the side<br />
case is removed or with a service lift with a<br />
removable floor.<br />
The front wheel measures 3.5 x 16 with tire<br />
measuring 150/80 VR 16 for the best braking<br />
efficiency and comfort. The front wheel<br />
axle is also new. It’s length has been<br />
increased due to the wider spacing.<br />
Removal of the rear wheel is simplified by<br />
the use of the accessory service stand jack<br />
and a detachable rear frame that is accessible<br />
from behind the left side saddle bag.<br />
The rear wheel can be removed without<br />
removing the side frame if the motorcycle is<br />
on a service lift with a removal rear wheel<br />
floor.<br />
