Hi all can you tell me what tyre pressures people are running as 2.9 and 2.4 bar seem a bit high any help would be appreciated
34/38 for spirited riding in the warm TBH standard pressure covers pillion and luggage so you can afford to lower a little unless you weigh 20 stone ...
I'd agree with Helmut Visor if you're riding solo & weather is warm, always check pressures cold. FYI - I run Super Corsa's on race bike, SC1 Front, SC2 Rear at 30/26 (Pirelli recommended) measured cold.
Thanks for that thanks for that going to drop it by 2psi and see what happens then probably drop a little more depending on how she behaves
hello rs reggie I live in Derbyshire so there is quite a lot of nice roads lots of twisty back roads to fly about on and some nice long sweepers I weigh 10.5 stone, in your experience would you say 34/38 would do as I spoke to Parelli uk and they said 40 psi back and 35 psi front I still think 40 psi in the back is quite a lot I am running the supercorsa sa diablos thanks in advance Rob
Hi Rob I am not an expert. Make your own choice based on what you read on here and elsewhere. I can only say what I personally feel happy with . The greater loading of pillions heavy rider etc do require the higher pressures I think a lower load allows a lower pressure. Also of course if you ride hard and get the tires warm the pressure will increase do allowing a lower staring pressure (like on a track day for example). So that's a factor to consider. Maybe pirelli should give the warm pressure to go by. In the end a few psi difference isn't going to throw you off. It's what you feel comfortable with and also you can look at the tire to check it's wearing nicely .
