650 Custom Tyre Pressures
« on: August 05, 2005, 11:34:05 AM »
Can anyone help with this one?.....yesterday, I had a new rear tyre  (130/90/16) fitted to my CB650 Custom. The shop's tyre guide from Bridgestone says that the pressures should be 2.5bar(36psi) front and 2.8bar(40psi) rear, but my Clymer manual says 2.0/28psi front and 2.25/32psi rear.  Anyone confirm which is correct, as obviously this is going to make a big difference to handling and tyre wear?
Thanks in advance
