Be sure to check the dates on your tires! Stay safe!

The industry standard for replacing motorcycle tires is six years after their initial manufacture date. However, if kept in temperature-controlled storage, this shelf life may be extended a little. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) mandates that all tires include an identification number.
