Recommend tyre pressure for 1050

Welcome to the forum Peter.
Current factory recommended pressures are 34 front / 42 rear, but many on here (myself included) run lower pressures.
I run 32 front / 38 rear on Metzeler Sportec M7RR's

 

Welcome Peter

I run 32 Front & 40 Rear on Metzelers M7RRs

 

Best advice I can give is experiment by dropping say 1 or 2 lb at a time till you find the best for you as tyres vary as much as riders do. My Sprint is best at standard setting of 36/42 on Angel GTs but was better with 34/38 on PR2s. Too low pressure on mine made the steering very heavy.
Good luck and let us know how you get on

 

36 front and rear here.... any lower than that and I get the deflation warning and it gets on my tits lol

 

34/42 here, using Metzeler Z8 tyres
Mostly motorway and then round London, front is coning as the sides wear faster than the centre and the rear is squaring off. So may increase front a couple psi.

 

When I had my suspension set up I was advised to run 32 front and 34 rear on my speedy when solo riding (warmer months) Personally I thought a bit to low so I run 34 -36 on Metzeler Z8s and find it a great combination for me

 

I always ran 36/42 perhaps a little harsh on the rear but I seemed to find the front was sensitive to lower pressure.

 

sorry, couldn't help but see the humor

 

Hi, do you mind me asking where you got your headlights and if you'd recommend?

 

It’s a very old thread, don’t hold your breath waiting for a reply.

 

Wisamic 5-3/4 5.75" Round LED... https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01EA7U4GS?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Wisamic
Plug in using the original bulb connection
10 times better than the original

 

You loose the daylight running light but all is good and go through the MOT just fine as are DOT stamped

 

Here they are fitted to my 2010 Speed Triple

Took 15 min To fit each side
Just remember that the chrome circular holder/retainer goes one way

 

Excellent - thanks for the tip! I just bought brighter bulbs too! damn. Anyway these seem to have the Halo which looks pretty cool. My lights seem to always be on though - no option to have just day lights:

Wow - that does look trick! What year is yours? Mines a 2005. I noticed you have Brembo's - did you upgrade them or is yours newer? I'm used to Superbikes and the one thing that is lacking slightly is the braking.

 

This thread I posted some time ago may be of interest.

The lights were from here -

On the whole I'd recommend, DLR is bright and good beam from dip and main, had some misting of the front lens when the weather is cold but clears after an hour standing, don't get the problem in warmer weather. I've read that elsewhere that this is a potential problem with LED lights as they are not generating heat at the front.
Edit: DOT marked too, been through MOT fine.

Excellent - thanks for the heads up - what a helpful bunch you guys are. Cheers everyone.

 

Mine is the 2010 Speed Triple who h comes with Brembo calipers
One significant brake upgrade I did was to install Hel braided brake lines, when properly bled the feedback and grip is greatly improved, cost about £100 front and back
