Higher Tire Pressure = More Suspension Compliance?
#25
I'm anal about tire pressure - comes from hanging around with an engineer for Goodyear. Check my pressure too frequently, and always use the same gauge so it's consistent if not accurate.
I start at mfg recommended pressure then adjust up or down by a pound each time till I find what works well for me then write that down and use it.
Each of my bikes differs a bit from what manual says but not by much. Some bikes way more sensitive than others - my Ural a prime example. Check every time I ride. Dyna Beads a disaster! Heck of a day.
Find what works best for you. Check frequently, cheap insurance.
