    36/42 is standard GS pressure, but you put a thick tire on like a Trailmax Misson and you’ll have concrete tires. I run 30/30 on Missions on a GSA and down to 25/25 off-road. People who run high street pressures off road will never achieve the ease that a soft tire will give you. Never had a pinch flat either. You have to find the sweet spot for the particular tire you run and how heavy your setup is.

    Enjoyed that! Funny you should say that about watching out for the sheep at 16'29"... That bit of road, exactly there just north of the Ystradfellte turn off, I came round one of those bends and there was a pig in the middle of the road. Sheep all along the verges but the one in the middle of the tarmac was definitely a pig, 100% pre-bacon, and it wasn't at all keen to get off the road until I'd almost reached it and slowed to a standstill. Always got to expect the unexpected! :)

    A happy group ridingtogether. Tyres pressure is all about the recommendations from the tyre manufacturs. on the road I always go 38 front 42 rear when two up and loaded up. when solo riding is more flexible. Worcester sauce on toast cheese. pinch of garlic salt on top.

    • @chrisnielsen9885
      @chrisnielsen9885 4 месяца назад

      My instructors always told me tyre pressures depend on a lot of things and shouldn’t just be one set figure. And if you check your pressures after a bit of an open road fang they might be 6 or 7 psi more than cold, or even more

    for the kickstand sensor, unless they have made it more complicated than the past, i had my 2006 kle 500 kickstand sensor not play ball and we just contected the wire up to bypass it, make it think the circuit is connected, i just had to be careful and remember the kickstand each time lol

    Dave Moss on his channel has a video about tyre pressures if i remember correctly. he says the tyre pressures are set for the average person but who is the average person?
    so his video explains about how to set tyre pressures up for yourself and your bike.
    i have a kawasaki 650 versys 2021, i go 33 in the front ( i think which is recomended for the bike) but for the rear they suggest 36 solo, 42 with passenger but i set mine to 38 as it just feels better for my weight as i got a bit of a belly lol

    • @teapotone
      @teapotone  4 месяца назад +1

      I’ve always ridden 36 front and 42 rear on every bike and every road tyre, never let me down personally - but you’re right, depends on you and how you like them to feel 👍
