What a difference 10 psi makes Empty What a difference 10 psi makes

I was beginning to wonder about my rear tire. Hadn't had a chance to check the pressure in awhile since my tire guage did not fit....finally got a "short" guage that would work. Found out my psi had gone down to 30 over the 2 months. Put it back up to 40 and have a much more stable ride.

I was beginning to feel some "wiggle" in the back end. Especially on turns. Not sure what caused this, but the extra psi got rid of the wiggle.

Lesson re-learned. "Check and adjust the psi to your liking".

that is for sure! when i didnt check mine for a while (a couple months) my pressure went down from 40 to 33 and i knew something was going on. it felt too cushy in turns and a little bouncy. i check my pressure more often now because of that reason.
