Tyre Pressure

Personal preference. What makes the bike feel right to you?

I currently run 34 front and rear. I used to run 30f and 32r on smaller bikes, but that was long ago. It takes a long time to figure out, but it is worth it once you have found what's right for you.

 

Depends on the tyre size & profile as to the pressure you should run in it - and as Tim said, also depends on personal preference.

I personally usually run 32 front and 35 rear, although depending on the riding i'm doing i vary the pressures and suspension setup to reflect. Running higher tyre pressure's will result in slower tyre warm up, but with more stability when over on the edge of the tyre. Conversely, it will also make the bike a bit twitchier and quicker to tip in.

Experiment with what works for you, but i'd recommend between 30-35 front & 30-38 rear. Higher than that and it starts getting a little dangerous, lower than that and it starts feeling a little squirmy in the twisties.

 

I run 33 in the front and 35 in the rear. That is what feels best for me and I have never had any bad feelings when using these pressures. But you have to experiment a little and find what is right for you.

Just remember if you alter the pressure while the tyre is hot, it won't be the same when the tyre is cold. It is best to check/change pressures when the tyre is cold for consistant results.

 

on my bike there is a sticker on the chain guard which states the pressure ill check what it is but the sticker is not in the best condition

 

I never knew what was the exact pressure. I have been running it on 30psi both front and rear, no problems riding.

 

i depends upon your riding skills thou and suspention setting

 

The FZR handbook on this site gives the pressures as 230kPa (33p.s.i.)
front and rear (with rider only).
