Never forget the tyre pressure ;-)

Now i never forget

Cool idea....B-)

I do so love solutions like that. Simple and effective. Nice work.

Joke: normally I put in 46 PSI but, hey, 2.9 could work!

 

[ziggie]

That would save me from looking at the frame for psi all the time.i like it.i also wondered about the 2.9,i understand now.

 

[Old Can Ride]

OUTSTANDING!

A very good idea.

Looks like 46 psi in a tire. And 2.9 in a tyre.

What measurement is the 2.9?

I believe 2.9 bar...is 2.9 milibar?

 

[OriginalRocket]

milibar is just 1/1000th of 1 bar.

Milibars are usually given when measuring atmospheric pressure, as the change in this pressure is usually very small.

 

[jangermann]

The unit is bar.
2.9bar=42psi for the rear tyre.
My digital air pressure instrument show pressure in bar ;-) and bar is also the most common unit for air presssure here in Denmark.

That's a great idea.

For what it is worth I find that 38 psi works better for me in the rear tyre. 42 is fine for 2 up but on any bike it is too much for solo as it does not allow the tyre to heat up sufficiently. Just my view of course.

I have a close friend tell me the same thing. He is 78 yrs old and has been on 2 wheels since 9 yrs of age. He is a gold mine of knowledge. So I'm dropping my tire pressure to 38 now a days. He suggested I do the same with the front as well. He said it could eliminate or at least curb the cupping problem I had with the original front tire. I do trust this gentleman's advice. Just thought I would share it with you folks.

At 62 I am only a mere boy

Nice! I use a felt pen, for the same thing, on the dirt bikes. For bikes without a chain adjustment sticker, I use the Dymo labeler with metal tape. It blends in nicely with aluminum swing arms.

I am curious what the official pressure should be according to the stock tires?

36 psi for the front; 42 psi for the rear.

I used a silver sharpie and wrote the pressures on the underside of the frunk lid.

I know my tire pressures by heart now. That beats the heck out of finding my reading glasses to see those tiny numbers on the frame!
Good job!
