Hey guys,
Long term owner and forum member here. I just had my front Bridgestone Battleax tire replaced today at only 4000 miles. The rear tire is in great shape. I'm concerned because the tire lasted so few miles. The wear pattern was even across the tire with no cupping.
Which leads me to tire pressure. I usually run 36 psi front and 42 psi rear. I was advised of the pressure from the dealer.
I know this is a dumb question but is that the right psi for the front tire? I know the max is 42 psi with a maximum load, but what psi do you guys run for a non loaded bike?
