Hi guys,

 

I just got myself a tyres pressure guage.

 

It is in PSI if i am not wrong.

1 to 70 only.

 

 

I am currently riding a spec3

What is the acceptable tyres pressure on front and back wheel?

I always pillion ppl around. hehe

 

 

And if i go petrol station pump, how much should i adjust before i pump?

 

Please advise

[rykros]

issnt tat pressure meant for with pillion?? i dunno, but i find it abit high... i usually pump 220 and 250 if im alone and 245 n 290 if im wif pillion... yupz... usually i ride alone... im using sportec m1 tyres... juz my 1c

[bobktm2]

Manual says

 

220 psi -front 250- rear for single rider

 

250 psi -front 290-rear with pillion

 

So if you sometimes have pillion, maybe you can take the middle of these 2.

 

example

 

Front - 235

rear - 270

 

Just a suggestion.

[Dixion]

personally i pump front235 rear270 lol

[Anthen]

With pillion

 

front 250 Kpa (bridgestone BT020)

Back 290 Kpa( '' BT090)

i pump 255 & 295.... wondering will the tire burst if i pump 300 at rear?

[limkim]

Hi guy

 

What is the correct way to pump your tired at the petrol kiosk?

 

 

Normally we will adjust to the psi we want.

then start to pump.

 

How long should i need to wait?

Or will it automatically stop once it reach the max?

or do we need to remove and check the psi whether it is enough ?

 

 

Pls advise i never pump at kiosk before.

 

 

Thanks thanks

[anric79]

when to stop pumping gas. the ans is below.

Different petrol station different method of pumping when reach full air.

 

for shell:

when pumping u will hear sound cling cling cling, when finished pump it will not emit sound anymore.

 

For esso/mobil:

when u pumping air there will be no sound coming out until when full then there is a loud sound coming out.
