NOTE
Tires are an important part of the suspension of
the vehicle. Tire construction characteristics and
tire inflation pressure can greatly influence vehicle
handling. Kawasaki recommends that you always
replace tires with standard replacement tires as
shown above.
It is also very important to have
tires of the same type and size on all axles, and
at the same inflation pressure, on each axle.
Installation of non-standard tires, or use of differ-
ent tires on one axle, can change or impair the
handling of the vehicle.
Installation of tubeless tires on rims requires com-
pressed air and is normally recommended as a
dealer service operation.
Nevertheless, a tube
can be inserted into the tire by the operator as an
emergency repair.
Maximum Tire Air Pressure for Seating Beads
Front and Rear
250 kPa (2.5 kgf/cm², 36 psi)
Payload and Tire Pressure
Failure to maintain proper inflation pressures or
observe payload limits for your tires can change or
impair handling and performance of the vehicle.
The maximum recommended load carrying capac-
ity is 420 kg (924 lb) (KAF400D/E).
The maximum recommended load carrying capac-
ity is 410 kg (904 lb) (KAF400F).
Use a tire pressure gauge to accurately set tire
pressure.
WARNING
Operating with unequally or improperly pres-
surized tires can adversely affect steering or
handling. Inflate both front tires to the same
pressure and both rear tires to the same
pressure.
