Tyre pressure

[d_kimo]

To all you gurus out there :D ... interested in motard tyre pressure ... i seem to recall about 28 psi for the street and a bit less for the track??

on the drz i will have a DOT michelin wet on the front and GPR 70 on the rear

unless there are better options for the rear to better match the front?, i already have the front from a while ago when i played racer, not very well either :( ???

oh and my housemate just got some pilot powers on his 525 ktm

so what thoughts do you do you have for street and track pressures to run??

cheers for your thoughts (ps i looked through the site and could find this topic, please forgive if i have missed it :) )

I run 36 in the rear and 32 in the front on the distanzias ... and didn't have any problem cavorting down the spur last weekend ;) The higher pressure in the rear should increase mileage a bit and I couldnt induce it to slide when hot with my ham fistedness :)

A few different pressures all for the track - no idea for the street
Bridgestone Slicks medium / soft 20-22psi
Maxis Slicks 19-20psi
Michelin supermoto Front 24 / Rear 27-28psi
Dunlops around 24-26psi

I just ditched my Pilots for some diztanias (way better)

I probaly had them to high for motard tho, I think under 32 F&R would be about right.

The pilots will be a lot better during summer mine didnt last too long :( 4k for the rear :shock:
