What is the general tire pressure for motorcycles?
1 Answers
Here is an introduction to motorcycle tire pressure: 1. The front wheel is generally 170-180 kPa, and the rear wheel is 200-220 kPa. 2. The electric inflator at most motorcycle repair shops is usually set to around 3 kg of pressure. When the sound of airflow disappears during inflation, it indicates that the tire pressure matches that of the inflator. 3. The rear tire of a motorcycle bears more weight. To check by hand, press firmly after inflation; if it can be slightly pressed down, the pressure is about right. Below is additional information on motorcycle tire pressure inspection: 1. The method for checking motorcycle tire pressure is as follows: Incorrect tire pressure directly affects tire lifespan and normal riding. 2. If the tire is overinflated, it cannot absorb road vibrations, affecting riding comfort and stability during turns. If the tire is underinflated, the tire will deform excessively while riding, impacting its lifespan. 3. Before riding, always check the tire pressure by pressing it with your hand to see if it feels sufficient. You can also gently tap the tire with a wooden stick to gauge its elasticity. The most accurate method is to measure it with a pressure gauge.
