Valve clearance

sulting in improper air-fuel mixture and/
or engine noise. To prevent this from oc-
curring, the valve clearance must be adju-
EN
sted by a Benelli dealer at the intervals
specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.

Tires

Tires are the only contact between the
vehicle and the road. Safety in all condi-
tions of riding depends on a relatively
small area of road contact.
Therefore, it is essential to maintain the
tires in good condition at all times and re-
place them at the appropriate time with
the specified tires.
Tire air pressure
The tire air pressure should be checked
and, if necessary, adjusted before each
ride.
