G'day All,
When I check my cold tyres - sorry tires - with a analogue pressure gauge at home I had PSI pressures of about 40(F) and 43(R).
On the road before the tires have warmed up the TPS on the dash shows 37 and 40 respectivly.
This morning I went straight to a petrol station (within a couple of miles) and put air in the tires with a digital machine to 42 and 42. It put air in the front, and dropped a 1 PSI from the rear.
Back on the road the TPS on the dash showed 38 and 41 and then never got higher than 40 and 42.
Thoughts on the TPS accuracy? What should I be chasing?
I ask because the handling in corners yesterday wasn't what i would call confidence inspiring. I haven't messed with the suspension yet - and I mean to - but what looks like the lower pressure in the front wheel I feel would have contributed to the handling (bike felt like it wanted to drop in corners)
TIA,
Glenn
