How much pressure is suitable for motorcycle tires?

2022-08-16

Air pressure is the life of a motorcycle, whether the air pressure is too high or too low will shorten the service life of the tire. Low air pressure will lead to increased deformation of the motorcycle tire body, tire side easy to appear cracks, but also the tire ground area increases, accelerate tire shoulder wear. If air pressure was too high, it will make the motorcycle tire cord by excessive stretching deformation, tire elasticity decreased, so that the car in the driving load increases, such as impact will produce internal cracking and blasting, at the same time, the air pressure is too high will accelerate the tire crown wear, and make the rolling performance decreased.

In general, the tire pressure of the front wheel of motorcycle tires is 170-200kpa, and the rear wheel is 200-200kpa. Motorcycle in the rear wheel of the load is larger, with the hand feeling is inflated after press hard, slightly can press down a little bit is about the same. If you can detect the best tire barometer, the general front wheel pressure in 170 kpa, the rear wheel in 200-220 kpa, in the vehicle with the manual written on the standard tire pressure value, the owner should be based on the manufacturer's standard recommended value.

This is because the tire pressure is mainly set to take into account the weight of the body, chassis height and other vehicle factors. It is not necessarily related to the brand of tire used. If the factory does not have special regulations, there is no need for special adjustment in winter or summer. Of course, it is recommended that the tire pressure should be measured at room temperature.
