hi there
any one have an idea of tyre pressures for my VTR?
i am putting 35 front and 32 rear. Feels like there is a lack of grip.
got new falcon tyres on (prob 500 miles usage)
would it be worthwhile to do 34 fronts and 30 rears or wouldnt that make much difference?
cheers people

if its any consolation, ive got 34 front 28 rear and feel like theres no grip at all in poor weather conditions....

Under normal load you're meant to be putting 36psi front and 32psi in rear.
What you mean lack of grip? Is there to much indersteer/oversteer.
Also what suspension mods you done.

try 30F-28R
34-36 is TOO high.

Hey, how did you know. ;) I prefer being called cuddly. :P
Tbh, I'm not sure, I've always out that in there, just felt nicer that way even in the wet.

you both have cheap budget tyres. Don't expect any sort of grip at all.
