First of all, I did do a Search for this topic, I swear

What are you running in terms of tire pressure front and rear?

40 front, 30 rear?

Yeah, I know you can read the sidewall, but who does that and besides, the info on my Michellin sidewalls seems a tab aggressive

Thanks

 

It should say it on the label on the frame, My sportster and my dyna both showed 30psi front and 40 psi rear.

 

I would trust the tire manufacturer over a gut feeling. I ride at the max cold tire pressure specified on the tire, or some times a pound or two lighter.

 

Yeah, my Dyna says 30 front, 40 rear; my buds said, nope just the reverse. I'll go with what HD says

 

Depends on tire brand and model. Stock tires were 30 up front on my bike, current tire is 38 up front. Try and run my current front tire at 30 and hold on! The ride will be a fun one for sure of you ride aggressive. Stock and current rear is different too but the rear is more foregiving running it a little low on my bike, but not as easy when its run the right higher psi.

Ya need to run them what the tire manufacturer says to. Ignore the book unless you got stock tires.

 

I'm running 44 rear and 42 front on my Commander 2's. Less than that and it feels squirrelly.

 

Do you not have an owners manual? It clearly states the recommend tire pressure. For my Heritage and Street Glide I run 36F and 40R.

 

Both my bikes have stock Dunlop Whitewalls, 36F, 40R. I check them about once every 7-10 days and they ALWAYS need some air.

 

dunlap stock tires..........
41 lbs.MAX cold, front
42 lbs.MAX cold, rear.

 

Metzlers.........40 front 40 back
