hi dear SM bros out there..

 

 

im riding aprilia MX125SM

 

i got 2 Qs,

 

 

1)does u guys have the problem chain rubbing the tyre problem ?

its a big problem, bcos the chain lifespan will down , tyre will oil thus cornerings will be slipery.

im use 150 (090) at the back btw. not big tyres =) izzit posible to put spacers ? but will unbalance alrdy rite ? where is a good shop for putting spacers ? =)

 

 

2) wat is the Air pressure u guys use on road ? With pillon is how much for the front and back ? =) thanks in advance..

 

DRZ-ers are u guys use for the tyre air-pressure for front and back with pillions =)

and wat are the pressure to all the 125SM out there ? =) thanks thanks cheers !

wow.. datz tough.. i`ll try to answer with the best of my knowledge..

 

1) chain rub is inevitable if u`re usin big tyres.. chances are ur rear rim is fitted slightly slanted.. try to rectify it by makin sure its straight.. if not.. use a 140 on the rear for ur nxt tyre chg..

 

for drz.. it comes stock with 140.. ppl who chg to 150 doesn`t experience the chain rub.. sum 160 tyre models will rub against the chain.. but sum 160 like the maxxis goldspeed doesn`t.. depends on the tyre cuttin also i think..

 

but not to worry.. chain rub doesn`t affect ur ridin.. hmm.. abt da chain life-span.. i don`t think it`ll wear off that fast also.. so its pretty fine.. unless u wana be on the safe side.. chg to a smaller rear tyre..

 

2) for my drz.. rear will be arnd 28-30 psi with pillion.. =)

You Ain`t Ridin.. If It Ain`t Slidin..
