i have been keeping my tire pressure around 15 psi and my idle about 3000. my question is this... i am 210 lbs and getting my bike into idle is not a problem, but sometimes i get real slow and it just wants to stall. i figured i was just to much into the brake so i made some set up changes to the rear brake but it hasnt seemed to help. so i am wondering if the bike would pull better for me if i upped the tire pressure. this is a 03 636 so there is no question about the idle strenth. i was just wondering if there was anyone out there over 200 lbs with any suggestions.

I Am 6'2 Almost 200lbs. Used To Have The Same Problem. Use Less Brake Tap It Dont Jab It. Worked For Me.

yup, less pressure on the brake. More tire pressure will actually make it harder since the tire patch will now be smaller making it harder to control. 15 psi is good for idle but atleast 18 psi if your gonna be trying circles next. Maybe even drop your idle some, say 2.8k you might see yourself fighting the idle less with the brake.
