TUBES
Tubes are a crucial part of the tube-type wheel assembly and should be treated with respect. When fitting a new tyre on a rim that requires a tube, a new tube should also be fitted. Old tubes can become stretched, and old tubes within new tyres can crease and fail due to thinning of the tube rubber. Tubes should only be repaired by an expert.

- Secure tube valve assembly to rim with care
- Inspect rim band and consult motorcycle dealer for correct rim band replacement
- Always check the size markings on the tube to assure that the tyre size appears on the tube
- Do not fit tubes in radial motorcycle tyres, nor fit radials on rims requiring tubes, unless the tubes bear matching size and radial (R) markings.
