Default Tire air pressure ?

Since all of us SW riders have to put up with,&nbsp\\; High road surface temps in the summer,&nbsp\\; What kind of air pressure is best?&nbsp\\; And do many run Nitrogen?

Default RE: Tire air pressure ?

Hi Harry,
&nbsp\\;
I keep mine the same pressures rear round. I have Metzelers and they recommend higher pressures than HD does for the Dunlops.
&nbsp\\;
As long at the tires don't exceed the maximum air presure ratings on the sidewall when hot you should be fine.

Hello from Glendale, az.&nbsp\\; I run nitrogen in my car but not my bike.&nbsp\\; My bikes loose pressure to often to try and keep them filled with nitrogen, can do air at home.&nbsp\\; On my sportbike I do drop the pressure a lb or 2 during our "summer" here though.&nbsp\\;
