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 />
