 Tyre pressures and wear patterns
Hi all,
just wondering what pressures you guys run on your STs.
I normally run as stated in the manual, so about 43 in the rear when two up and loaded.
I notice that the rear tyre develops 'ears' on the edge of the tread pattern.
My tyre guy reckons this is a sign of under inflation, and one of the guys I ride with said over the weekend my rear tyre looks flatter than others bikes.
I've always had this wear pattern, and assumed it was down to the manner in which I ride (sprinting between bends, hard on lean / engine braking / power).
I'm currently running a Diablo Strada, and did notice that putting a few extra psi seemed to make the bike feel more stable in high speed bends (especially if they were bumpy). I get the same with other makes though (avon, contis, bridgestones).
So, what do you guys run ? (tyres and psi / bar)
Cheers,
John. |
