A new campaign launched by TyreSafe, an organisation devoted to raising awareness on tyre safety, advises motorcyclists to make a “PACT” with their tyres
As many bikers embark on the first rides of the year, TyreSafe is advising motorcyclists to check the condition of their tyres with PACT advice:
P – Performance, including grip, handling and fuel economy will all be improved with correct tyre care.
A – Air Pressure is essential for maximum performance. Pressures should be checked at least once a week using an accurate pressure gauge.
C – Condition is critical to road safety. Inspect tyres for any cuts, bulges, uneven wear or objects embedded in the tread.
T – Tread depth is essential for safety on wet roads. Check that your tread depth is not below the legal minimum of 1mm (for bikes over 50cc).
