Earlier in the year in cold weather I have slightly lower tire pressure (27/27 good lower limit) to get more tire on the ground and lower pressure also heats the tire up faster in colder climate ensuring better grip earlier during your ride. In hotter climate I would go with a higher pressure (42/42 and lower it until it feels good) to ensure the tire don't run too hot and don't get too short of a lifetime but still ensuring a good ride. 36/36 is a pretty good average tire pressure. If you do equal amount of braking and accelerating the tires should be balanced with the same pressure. If you never do any hard braking the rear can be higher pressure as the manual always say 37/42 or something, for cruising / daily riding with luggage or a passenger.
The label on your tire is the manufacturer recommended for the TIRE not for the BIKE. mine has a sticker on the swingarm that shows tire pressure for riding solo, 2 up, etc.
Bike comes with a certain tire. Usually when you buy tires you dont go with the same ones the bike came with. I prefer to start with tire manufacturer recommended and adjust as needed.
The pressure on the tire walls are the max rated pressure and it always higher than what you want Follow your bike manual for tire pressure and measure it when tire is cold Yes follow your bike manual even if you change tire with higher rated pressure
I don't know what to do! On the swingarm on my 2022 Z900, it says 38 front and 42 rear. I go 36 front and 40 rear because the tires will expand as they heat up. Is that proper? IDK. It's just what I do. Also, I'M NOT A FAT ASS ADOBO! 6'3" 180lbs. I guess that makes me a skinny ass????
I always ran factory recommended tyre pressures 36fr 42re 120/70/17 fr 150/70 re 260kg tourer. Rear pressure is perfect for everything except 2up fully loaded spirited riding. Have to add 2-3psi Front is actually better with 30psi, my fork isn't exactly well sprung and dampers aren't the best as well. A bit softer to decrease harshness
In your other short about this, you say to follow the spec for the bike. So which is it? Not trying to be a dick, just a new rider trying to figure it out.
@@Jesxi should say I am running a top box alot and lil heavier so went for higher. Also gives me more time between checking without it going too low 🤣🤣 Still does feel good in the corners though
@@thumperjoker8272 lower tire pressure causes your tires to square off inward at an accelerated rate. I daily my bike and i dont have any probably leaning over or having traction..
The same as my mt10. On hot days, I usually fill up 4 psi above the recommendation psi due to the molecules expanding the tires on hot days and when it cools down, molecules slow down and tire contracts to the recommended psi from the manufacturer .
Bought my first 600 bike going up from and r3. The tires were running 10/11 psi on an r6 with me busting out 150mph not knowing and thinking the bike was supposed to feel heaving with stiff steering 😭
Should be checking like every week minimum if riding daily. I run 36-42 as per manual too for regular riding anyways and I don’t like them falling under the 33-39 mark or so more often then not
I ran 14 psi at the track on my rear wheel, I felt the bike almost high side. Leaks happen, especially when taking your bike off a trailer for a morning run.
I bought my fist bike a while ago and about a month of riding it I was like hmmm I should probably check the tire pressure and it was at 9psi front and back
Okay so hypothetically let’s say I weigh 315.. I totally don’t but Yk hypothetically, anyways what tire pressure would I run, say it’s like normal summer uh temp, so like 85-100
5psi... Mate that's Trials or rock crawling enduro bike pressures. Track pressures should never be used on road... You ain't getting the tyres hot enough mush lol
Common m8. Track is in general lower pressure and tire heaters. For a reason. Street. Just the recommended pressure. Don’t play with it. You will wear them down quicker and cupping or other weird issues.
This really depends on the factory intended use of your bike. If your bike has accommodations for a second rider, then that was factored in. If your bike was built with the idea of adding bags, that was also considered. The manufacturer sets things to cover the worst (most weight) possible use case. They also have to guess at what the rider weighs. If they shoot for two riders at a combined 350lbs and I climb on solo at 175 with gear, factory tires will be over inflated.
If we are talking about only road riding no track use even if you are going balls to the walls knees down on the streets. 30/30 shouldn't be used way to low! 35f/35r should be the (lowest) you should be running in my opinion on the street (unless specified in manual). Track riding 30/30 sounds a perfect starting point.
Mhm only that ball collapsed inside when crushed so you don't really increase the contact patch.. Also on the tyre it's maximum allowed psi and not recommended :)
Don't know I just put air in till I hear cracking sounds
keep going until you celebrate new years early

I normally run about 7psi on the rear and about 32psi on the front 🤣
bro got that wheelie ready tire pressure 💀
whoa!
Tire wall is max pressure for tire manufacturer, be sure to check service manual for pressures assuming stock tires and suspension setup as a base

I had a big ride on Saturday and made the mistake of double checking pressures on a gas station air pump. Fucked my day 😢
I run 37/44 since I have a passenger often plus I like how it feels when I lean hard.
The pressure on the tire walls are the max rated pressure and it always higher than what you want
Follow your bike manual for tire pressure and measure it when tire is cold
Yes follow your bike manual even if you change tire with higher rated pressure
Well put I like your examples thank you
Glad I ride a dual sport with bias plies so I just make sure there's some air in there
“What pressure you run?”
“Some.”
“How much?”
“Enough.”

I ride a honda vfr800 and its like 550lbs pretty big sport touring bike, i run usually 36-38psi in the back and 30-34psi in the front
I also run a VFR and running 40/42 lol
@@DatJamesYT i might see what its like with 40/42 then, i saw thats the spec it tells you to fill it at but i always thought that was too much🤣

36 42 idc everyone tells me it’s too high. The dealer told me that, my manual says the same
Psi, 38 front 42 rear, I'm 64kg and pirelli angels. Likewise but feels perfect too me. What's he mean 30/30? O.o sounds dangerously underinflated?

I’m a feather. I just use the tire recommended PSI
Check and use the swingarm tp label figures
31F / 26R
I checked my psi after 2 months and they were both down to 18/20. Guess I need to check every month
This is a joke right?

Big cruiser 2psi extra in front , better wear
my happy feeling for me is 26/29. any psi above tht my bike is too bumpy and not nice to ride as hard. too hard also is quite slippery. ✌🏼
5 psi on track ? Are u slow
He was at the time
I ran 14 psi at the track on my rear wheel, I felt the bike almost high side.

42 front 38 rear 42 42 for double up
I run the tire pressure that’s in it
I bought my fist bike a while ago and about a month of riding it I was like hmmm I should probably check the tire pressure and it was at 9psi front and back
💀 do you think it was like that from the start or deflation? I feel like you should’ve noticed if it was the latter.
guessing it was a used bike, and not new?
glad you got it sorted though. hell of a difference in handling, and safety.
Okay so hypothetically let’s say I weigh 315.. I totally don’t but Yk hypothetically, anyways what tire pressure would I run, say it’s like normal summer uh temp, so like 85-100
What camra
I'm 6 foot 3, 270 lbs. What psi should I use for my r6?
Using just 2 psi shy of maximum of the tire (it will be on the sidewall of the tire) and you'll be doing good.
- 6'5", 245lbs.
@@MotoDash1100 much appreciated motodash! I'll check my psi right now and adjust
@@thelogicalkrampus462 don't do that bro. Try 36psi front and 42 rear. Then adjut from there on how it feels.

Manufacturer knows your bike best, use the tires recommended psi for safety and effective performance.

You never go off the pressure numbers off the tyres you go off the bikes recommended pressures.
Oh, the guy again who never rides her broken down aprilia...

There's no reason to guess, it tells you right on the side of the fucking tire.

Nah, just nah
Mhm only that ball collapsed inside when crushed so you don't really increase the contact patch.. Also on the tyre it's maximum allowed psi and not recommended :)
The pressure on the tire is not the “recommended pressure” that’s the MAX pressure for the tire… it literally says it.
Love to watch your vids but it would be best to refrain from using profanities.
I like to run 30 front 32 -34 rear
3psi front 80psi rear, thank me later.
🤣
Hehehe
So “factory recommended pressure” is the max pressure listed on the tire?
