Guest Tomg Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Just a word of advice. I have to change my tyres due to my neglect of checking the tyre pressure. it has created a flat squared of spot on the front tyre. not good obviously. so i just thought i would let you know. as i had no idea a) it was under pressure (no queens lyrics please!) or it would have that amount of effect. but maybe im just a bit of a thicky dumb shit!!! other than that just had the beast serviced and apart from new rear pads and the need ffor new tyres everythign else is ship shape.

Boozehound Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Worst experience I ever had on a motorcycle was riding 400 metres to a petrol station with a flat back tyre (bike had been recovered after it was nicked by some ratboys). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTreme Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 You have to check your pressures all the time Tom....besides uneven tyre wear your life is on the line if you don't. 36/42 is generally the best combination for most bikes. And don't forget to check, adjust, and lube your chain regularly too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
