Taking the PSI

[Al_79]

Hi all,

Just a quick one and sorry if this has been covered, I did do a quick search..

I have a PSI question...

I have a 650 Dak with tourancers on, with the stock 21" front and the wurth progressive springs. I am wondering if anyone has found a good gauge for a town commute and A roads?

I carry about 20k and I weigh about 85k (and I am tall with dark hair and cute eyes...no wrong site!) any thoughts?

Thanks

Al

When you wear the Tourances out, try Conti Escapes

Pressure I run is 31 in the front and 28 in the rear.

Good enough to do this

Flipfly...I did see this when you posted it and just reading it and looking at the picture I fouled myself! Good going!!

I will check out the Conti too!

Flips - are you running more air in the front?

i've always been under the impression it is better to have more in the rear tyre than the front - i run tourances with 32psi front and 35psi rear (i have a 19" front)

having said that, the lack of chicken strips is impressive, thats for sure!!!

you must be virtually in "kneedown" territory - must be good for suprising sportsbikes. i obviously need to grow a bigger pair
