Try 2.2 bar front, 2.5 bar rear, (which probably equates to 36 and 42!)

Done about 500 miles on PR now and find them incredibly hard and not keen to turn in. Previous Avon Azaro/Storm were much better in both respects.
Always use 2.5/2.9 bar for solo and 2 up but think I should reduce to BMW recommended 2.2/2.5. Trouble with this is I would need to adjust every time I took a pillion which is quite often. Anyone out there have any experience on pressures for PR?

Sorry to sidetrack but.......

Went to check the tyre pressures on my motorhome yesterday.
Checked the book............ 5.5 bar (80 psi in old money)

Put the foot pump away and got the compressor out !


Stood well back

It was like that first time I checked the pressures on our old motorhome - 75psi - the fuel stations compressor didn't go high enough so I bought a mini compressor (or used the truck pumps at motorway service stations)!

I use 33psi front and 36psi rear for solo, 36 psi fr and 42 psi rr when loaded or 2 up.
