What is the pressure to my tires?

Hi there!

My name is Ran, I'm 22 years old and I just bought my first motorcycle.

The only manual I found for it is in Japanese. There are a lot of maintenance operations that I can handle without the text in the guide but the correct air pressure that should be put in the tires is a critical data that I can't come up with by myself.

Please, help me by telling me from the following picture what is the correct pressure for the front and rear tire.

Thank you!

The page says to refer to page 42 for the pressure. The correct pressure should also be written on the sidewall of the tire itself.

If the motorcycle is also sold in the U.S., you should be able to find an online English manual on the mfr's U.S. website.

yllwsmrf, thank you for translating. Indeed, there's a table in page 42 that tells the correct pressure.

The units are kg force per square cm and I converted it to PSI.

Now everything is OK, thanks again guys for helping me,

Ran.

The Yamaha XJ400S (aka Diversion 400) was not brought to the US nor the UK officially, therefore there is no English manual for it.

There is a manual for the XJ600S though. Both bikes pretty similar and a lot of operations can be guided by this manual when treating the XJ600S young brother, the XJ400S.
