Differences in Tire Pressure…
I watch my tire pressure pretty closely. While the manual says 36 front and rear for solo riding ('08 UC), I usually run 37 front and 38 rear. But if I add just a pound or two more than that in both, the ride becomes harsh.
The lower pressures give a smooth ride but how much mileage do I give up (if any) running the lower pressures?

RE: Differences in Tire Pressure…
I,m running 38 front and 40 rear. I have 11K plus on the rear tire and have about 4/32 tread left. These are the D402s on the King. I run my shock presure at 20lbs for 2 up and 15 for solo.
It seems to work well for me. I check my air presure weekly
