Optimum Tire Pressures for Night Train
Fellow Train riders,
I was told by the dealer to use 30/40 cold and elsewhere I like to run 38/42 for good handling so I was wondering if by bumping up a little air, would the Train handle even better than it already does? I am amazed at how well this bike performs, considering it is not designed for high performance. I use the higher air pressure in sport tourers, sport bikes, etc. I can try it and find out, but usually the dealer tells you straight up what's best.....usually.
