Tyre pressures M600
Hi All
Quick and easy one, my Haynes manual says look at the sticker on the swingarm or the owners manual, both of which are conspicuous by their absense on my bike. So what do people recommend? I've got Bridgstone BT023s. Ta Glen. |

Don't worry. Those pressures sound quite low PDL for the Bridgestone 23's.
You could always got for 30F , 32R

From memory, think the ones given in the manual are 2.1 bar front and 2.2 rear, not sure how that converts! Have heard it said that is very low but it's what I've stuck with

2.1bar = 30.46 psi
2.2 bar = 31.90 psi 1 bar = 14.50326 psi I normally run 30F/32R on the 900 monster but add 2 to 3 psi in rear loaded or two up You can normally reduce pressures by a couple of psi on trackdays

Thanks guys
Only had the bike for a couple of weeks, but the front was 24 & rear was 37! reset to 31/32 and it's a lot better - as you might imagine. Glen. |
