I think my tyre is too hard 32psi

bro i run 25 psi for everything (normal riding). but when i do slow **** or any stunts i run 20 psi ( you can 12ve and do stoppies with 20 psi). 32 psi is way too hard!!

25psi is HORRIBLE for normal riding.. try riding the twisties with that PSI..

I can wheelie quite fine on 32psi, just takes a little more balance..

Lower your pressure unless you drag a lot of knee, then just adjust for your type of riding, and 25 is FINE for normal riding as long as your not tryin to lean 50 degrees

hehe lower it to like 15 i dont drag knee much but its great for stuntin

25 is fine for twisties.. on the track a lot of people are running 28. If you are having problems with 25 in the twisties...... it's most likely in your head

i ran 28 in the race bike. Like nags said if ya can't run twisties on 25 its not the pressures fault

28 psi on the track, yah possible, and maybe COLD, and when it warms up it's at like 30-32 and 98% of street riders will not 'warm up' their tires to the point of making the pressure rise.... for the track, riders should start with 30/30 and then adjust for preference and tire (and bike) for general street, riders should start with 35/35...

I dont know anyone that runs under 30psi(warm) that races track

and no, I don't have problems riding 25psi in the twisties.. but I _CAN_ feel the tire shape flex, and if I were running ~30-35psi I would be able to ride MUCH faster..

nags

when I speak of psi, I only talk about cold tires.. I never go by warm tires. And yes, I always warm up my tires

yes, you should always check/fill when cold, but to find optimum range of psi for your tires, check when hot too to see how many psi it is raised when your tires are 'warm'

but i highly doubt that when your tires are 'warm' it is no where near the temp you would need to raise the pressure level in the tire..

although this is mostly for track or death-wish twistie riding..

my point is only that.. personally i would not run anything under 30psi when riding on the streets.. 25 is usable for the street but I find it horrible, uncomfortable and unresponsive because of the tire flex

32 is fine

learn your balance it might b a combo of weight and throttle combo

if you figure that out it will be 10 times easier when you lower your pressure
