Tubeless tire system

This vehicle uses a tubeless tire system in which a rim seal
1
band is used instead of the conventional tube.
The advantages of the tubeless system lie in the absence of dan-
ger from a faulty tube. This greatly reduces the risk of a sudden
loss in pressure.
The moments of inertia of these wheels are smaller than in con-
ventional spoked wheels with a tube. This results in better han-
dling and riding comfort.
The rigid rim design results in a wire spoke wheel that is almost
entirely maintenance-free.
Husqvarna Motorcycles recommends that the rim seal band is
changed after 5 years at the latest, regardless of the actual state
of wear.
