I just installed a new set of Pilot Powers. What do you all recommend for Tire pressures? I got 3600 out of the 208's running as per the Manual tire pressures religously. Thanks | ||

I just put a new Power on the front of my bike too. I am going to stick to the factory specs. of 36 front and 38 rear. I have 5k on my rear 208 with 40% tread left, but will replace it with a Power soon. | ||

I have always run 30/30, in anything but the stock dunslides, almost always a good choice if'n you'r on anything new, such as pp's, but try it and feel the diff first! | ||

I use 36 and 42 and I never get over 1500 miles out of tires. Flatlanders could use my take offs for a long time.  | ||

I run the stock settings on the pilot powers as well. I have a Storz steering damper and had a slight weave which is common. The pilot powers cured this weave being slightly more angular than the dunlops. Great tires you purchased! | ||

Sgt, Tire pressures can really be a personal preference. I change my tire pressures based on the weather, how I'm loading the bike and what I'm using it for. For example: - cooler weather I run a little less pressure so my tires grip a bit better (32f 34r) - warmer weather (34f 36r) - carrying a passenger (36f 38r) - track days (30f 32r) to get em good and sticky Hope this helps.

I recently did a track day with Pilot Powers on a cold day, and I was running 26 lbs in front and 28 in the rear. Stuck like glue. On normal days, I run 32/34, and they are great. | ||

Thanks Guys I will definetly use your suggestions. So far I put about 45 miles on em today and I definetly can tell a difference just commuting. However I noticed the fornt end seems alittle less stable at Interstate speeds, anyone else notice this after going to PP's compared to the 208s? |
