1700 tyre pressures

trevwales · 08-19-2009, 01:42 PM

Anyone found a sweet spot for tyre pressures for these yet. On my voyager, it recommends 28 front and 36 to 40 rear depending on loading.

I found using 28 it was too mushy in front and bumped it up to 38. Too hard, tried 32 and seems ok 'ish. Rear is doing ok at 40.

This is on standard tyres, havent gone far enough to wear them out yet.

Thanks, Trev

I run 40 in the rear and 35 in the front.

Sorry to get off topic, but I couldn't help but notice your light bar. Is that the Cobra light bar they advertise for the 2009 Vulcan LT and Classic? If so was there any fit issues on your 2009 Nomad during installation and was the install straight forward? I ask also because i see the turn signals hang down under the lights and on the cobra site the show them sticking out to the side. Thanks for your time.
