tyre pressure and adjustment.

I've got a digital tyre pessure gauge, and have found the digital air pump at Shell on The Quay in Wellington to be pretty accurate.
Right angled attachment sounds like a good idea.

[QUOTE=wkid_one]4psi? Is that the rule - arse! Too many variables
Sorry should have said " Approx " 4PSI gain from cold . Have based this on 20 + years of checking .The other 13 y's did care to young just road the bike !!

Of course VFR and BMW owners and the like will be amused by this talk of right-angle attachments...

I don't know why, do you think we don't have pneumatic tyres? You've still got to get down behind the front discs. The old air units that had the long metal end were hopeless and would scrape the paint on the alloy front wheel while the new electronic ones only have a small end so they are quite good.

Almost worth riding down to Wellington just to check the air.

The shell out at the end of the Northwestern has worked nicely for me before. but spent a frustrating afternoon hooning around trying to find one in town.

I just use a foot pump and a cheap tyre gauge from Repco. I think I'm going to have to get a new footpump soon though as the old one is pretty stuffed, the gauge on it is totally inaccurate (hence the separate pressure gauge) and it's made of fairly thin bits of steel which are kinda bending sideways now.
The tyre pressure gauge is kinda a bit dodgy now too. So I'm thinking I might go for one of those more expensive foot pumps that have been mentioned (my old one was a $10 one :P).
