ok so i got back from a ride and i am in a mood for just being with my bike... Rolling Eyes anyway i thought i had better check my tyres as i never actually do and everyone says you should check them before you go out. well i checked them after my ride, and the rear tyre read 8 PSI!!!!!!!!!! and the front read 24.6 which is roughly right.
i thought ok i will wait until the tyres are cold and check them again, so i did and the rear tyre was now on 7 psi. how the hell did i not notice this when i was riding!!! scary. so i filled them up straight away and then added some puncture liquid that fills in any hole or punctures there might be in the tyre, (what a hassle i had with that!!)

I didn't check mine for about 2 months when i bought it, and it felt like the bike was swaying every now and again.

Then i checked my tyres, and the front was 10psi, and the back was 15psi.

Filled them up and alls well!!

I've had the front as low as 11psi before, but I noticed it as braking took longer and cornering was more difficult. I think it was the valve, because when I had new tyres fitted, it hardly ever lost pressure (the rear was always fine).

Yes those are standard pressures for the NSR.
