tire pressure
I was just wondering what PSI people are running in their tires. The owners manual says to go by what the tire says. Both of my tires say 40 PSI cold, so that is what I am doing. However, some people run different pressure in their front and rear tires.
What should I do??

RE: tire pressure
I read an article in a bike mag from a guy fromDUNLOP that said put 40 in front and rear. That's what. I have been running for 6k miles now and no issues. Tiers seem to be wearing fine. Ride is also fine

RE: tire pressure
I was running my dunlops 36 front and rear.Recently bumped the rear pressure up to 40 because I carry my girlfriend and that's what the manual said to do if you carry a passenger, but it really hits the bumps much harder now. She's not happy. I'm going to bring it down to 38 and see how that works.
