Congrats Moses,
Welcome to the darkside.
Enjoy the ride.
Once you get the right air pressure found,
it's a real sweet ride.
For me it's at 28 PSI,
but you'll find yours.
If it handles like a tank, just let a little out till it handles right.
You'll know when you find it.
Congrats again.

Oh yea,
The naysayers say you can't run a car tire on a motorcycle,
it'll only go straight, so be careful....

It'll handle like a finely tuned wheelbarrow....stir the pot Just kidding, my wheelbarrow handles much better...just kidding,really.

Oh yea,
sweet huh?
Glad you like it.
Me too.
Of course,
the wife likes her 225X50,
but then she's a little shorter than me.
What air pressure did you settle on?

 

[moses]

slowly increased it to 32, then backed down to 26(which i liked the feel of) and now running 29.
