DO NOT TWIST the needle tool at any time during insertion or removal Be prepared to exert significant force and brace yourself and the bike accordingly 4 Re inflate the tire Listen check for leaks Trim the plug flush with the tread using side cutters as soon as it s convenient Re Seating a Tire In the absence of a high volume supply of compressed air a generic nylon web band clamp or ratcheting cargo strap can be used The idea is to place the clamp s band all the way around and centred on the tire tread and then tighten it so that the tire s sidewalls and beads are pushed outward and into contact with the rim to seal enough for air pressure to finally force the tire s beads fully back into the lips of the rim Preemptive Tire Sealant As a preemptive measure your MOTORINO dealer can install a product which is capable of nearly immediately sealing a puncture often without you even noticing Since it remains a liquid until it s forced out of a leak it also acts as a kind of dynamic balancer potentially making your bike run even smoother MOTORINO Love MOTORINO Love Your MOTORINO will run even better when it is clean and shiny Washing Use only a soft cloth water and a mild soap suitable for automotive finishes Gently rain water down onto the bike especially around the dash or wheels being careful not to force it into areas it does not normally go Wash from top to bottom to avoid scrat

Much of this interpretation will be obvious after some time in the saddle but here are a few points to keep in mind The volt gauge unlike a fuel gauge is not a direct reading of how much power or range you have left It just shows the approximate voltage of the battery pack Charging Instruments Controls and Equipment The volt gauge will read high for most of the time the bike is switched on but stationary only when the batteries are very weak will you see lower readings The meaningful readings on a volt gauge only happen when a demand is being placed on the batteries With gel cells fresh off the charger you may not notice any swing in the volt gauge off of high However as the batteries are drained you will notice a larger drop on the volt gauge as the bike is accelerated from a stop or when going up hills When the batteries are still mostly charged the volt gauge reading will recover to full when the bike is cruising on level ground However as the batteries drain further you will notice the voltage reading drop more and more when cruising Also keep in mind that when regeneration is hap pening such as lightly braking down a hill the volt gauge reading will show high Lithium batteries are a bit tougher to read because one major advantage of LiFePO cells is also a slight disadvantage here their voltage drops or sags far less when under load This means the volt gauge will almost alway
