I've owned and ridden motorcycles for over two and a half decades, and if there's one thing that everyone has a different opinion or preference is tire pressure. now I know tire pressure needs to be adjusted depending on the load and what kind of riding one does but my question is what is the optimal tire pressure for both front and rear for a 2006 VTX 1800 C?
I've been keeping my rear at about 38 psi and my front at about 36 and I don't notice any uneven or excessive wear thus far as I do check my pressure probably at least once or twice a week.
I don't particularly ride hard and kill it on the corners but I do ride quite often and there are some twisty roads here in Ontario Canada.
Some of my riding Buddies swear by keeping both front and back at 40 PSI for Optimal Performance and tire longevity.
Tell me 40 PSI sounds somewhat excessive but I did want to get some feedback based on experience and trial-and-error from some of you. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated
