Problem with inner tubes on FXR standard rims

[RDjase]

Hi Jase, yes, mine says 57 psi max as well, it also says you need to do 100 miles to run in the tyre . Bet you didn't do that? . I'll leave it at 85 psi overnight and let it down gradually tomorrow. It'll be fine...... Thanks for your concern.

I saw the 100 miles for scrubing in, 215 odd laps at Roy Hill, Maybe not....

I got a medium front for my TZR250 and will by pairs of used softs and just use the rear on the TZR (will have a RZ350 engine in it at some stage in the future) and have spare fronts for bucket use. The rims on this TZR (88 1KT/2XT) are 2.75 front and 3.5 rear.

There are a few goodys here, good pricing too, and most parts are in stock in Tauranga

Hows the Slick looking? Have you put soapy water around the bead to check for slow leaks

Thanks for the links. I'll check them out. No, I haven't checked for leaks. Sounds like a good tip, thanks. The new slicks look great and I've balanced the wheels myself so they're spot on . My front end should feel much better now - the creased inner tube made it unpredictable when hot.

Another option is pop the tire onto the rim, then deflate the tube completely. Bounce the rim on the tire right around 720 degrees. This gives the tube time to settle in the tire and then repressurize.
