    Hi All

    What tyre pressures are everyone running on their speeds for fast road riding.

    Cheers

    when i got my suspension professionally set up,he recommended 32psi front and rear..if you do that you have to take a while and warm them properley (accelerate/brake/accelerate/brake/ etc etc or they will feel a bit squirrely to begin with:confused: i have upped the rear to 36 and left the front about 32 and it handles great

    I have pilot road 4, and run 32f 38r. I just feel 42 rear is to high and a lower psi helps with the firm ride

    Can't fault them, wearing much better than the Super Corsa's, just as good grip and feel IMO. Good wet grip (not that I make a habit of that).
