just have a question about the stated Honda recommendation for tire pressure. Just does not seem correct.
Both the manual and on the swing arm it says 42 rear and 36 front. I checked and from the dealer they had them
both at around 36.
looking at the sidewall of the Metzeler Z8 on the rear it says 42 for maximum load. And i know on the Ninja 650 and Versys 650
it was 36 rear and 32 front. That seems more realistic. What are you setting your tire pressure at?
i would think that if i set them to what the manual says the tires would be too hard for just me on bike. (180lb)
