Hi,

The rear sounds a bit high, should be 33 and the front 29 I think.

The 1st time I had mine checked I was at the bike school I passed with. One of the blokes reckoned they looked a bit dodgy.
8 in the front, 9 in the back.... OOps. How was I to know? I almost killed myself when I got back on with the correct pressures Very Happy

The bikes tyre pressure is very important. People don't realise that it needs to be spot on!! Incorrect tyre pressure will affect speed, accelaration, breaking, handling, etc. Make sure it's right!! Could make the difference between your next post saying.... "Ooooopsie, I crashed my NSR" or "Cheers guys, you saved my ass!" Laughing

That was a similar situation to me, Dean...when I first got the RVF, the cornering was really shit, and I thought that I might have to adjust the suspension settings, but then I thought "hmm...let's check the tires..." Embarassed

It felt a heck of a lot better afterwards...

Another thing... don't trust the pressure gauge on the petrol stations air line. The amount of abuse those things get from car drivers, the damn things are never acurate!! By all means pump your tyres up with them, but get a proper tyre pressure gauge from halfords to accurately check them.
