Front tire pressure ??
I have a 95 dyna glide. I run 100/90-19 metzler me 880 front tire. Manual says 30 psi. My front tire has lots of cupping on the tread. H-D service manager says the tire should run at 42 psi, because thats what the side of the tire says. I understand that the tire shows maximum psi that the tire is capable of handling, not what is recommended. I aired it to 38 psi, but didn't like the way it handled. WHAT DO YOU RUN IN YOURS ?

- my '96 Heritage Softail , am running about 36 psi
for both front and rear.
- definitely do not ever run max-sidewall-pressure.
Max-sidewall pressure is for max-load.
- when in doubt , follow manual.

edit : Metzeler ME880 here too.

Go to the Metzler website and input your bike. It'll tell you the recommended pressure
Ride safe and check your pressure often
