new to the darkside
Just came over to the darkside this last sat. I have a 08 Roadstar and used a 195/60r16 for the tire size, and it is a Bridgestone EL400. I didn't have to do any modification to the bike. I have 120 miles on it and it feels great. I can still take coners as fast as I usually do, I never really pushed my bike that hard anyways. And I can't wait until I get some more miles on it and really see how it holds up.

What is the best pressure that anybody has found to run in the ct tire. After about 200 miles at 35psi, the ride feel a little too soft in turns. Any help would be appreciated .

I like 35 - 38 on my 1300.. Its a personal thing depending on shock settings and riding style.

After about a week I finally have bumped the psi to 40 and the ride feel great. I am keeping an eye on the tread to make sure I don't were it uneven. Thanks to all those before me that I have gotten the information i needed to do this.
