Winter Air Pressure Loss

[beezer]

Since it's been cold I haven't ridden since a short trip in January. Yesterday was nice and sunny but a little chilly and so is today. I took another short ride yesterday and today I decided to go over a few things. I waxed her and thanked God again for blessing me with such a beautiful motorcycle.
Then I decided to check the air pressures. So I got out my Craftsman jack and Idaho's jack adapter and up she went. The shocks lost all their air so I pumped in 15 lbs. with my new handy dandy pump. There was a bit of fiddling involved there. I don't know if you guys with stock seats have a problem getting your sausages in there screwing the pump on but I have a Mustang and it's quite cumbersome to say the least if not less. It appears they could have added 2" to the hose so it would flex more.
Now I realize some of you guys run with 0 psi in your shocks so that wasn't the problem. The problem, and it appears to not matter whether it's a tubeless or tube tire, is the 15 - 20 lb air loss in the tires. Soooooo I can't stress enough to check your pressures.
