Byrdman Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 I rode from Chicago all the way to Dallas. From Dallas back up to Tulsa. From Tulsa to Eureka Springs and then back to Chicago on a rear tire with a whopping 16lbs of pressure in it! In Eureka Springs I couldn't keep a line in a corner, was all over the road, and generally looked like a rookie. I blamed it on the mass amounts of alcohol and I'm sure that had a bit to do with it but...............I am an idiot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redxxrdr Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 Been buying those cheap valve stems? Most are Chinese made and leak after a few months. Eddy has convinced me to try some aluminum ones from Kurvey Girl. All I need now is to take time to break down the tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVLXX Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 Jeff... I am amazed and bewildered that you did not check your tire pressure before or during your trip.... Craig... those are nice.... I like, I want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeXTrain99 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I figured you had aired down for traction on the dirt road at Ozarxx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2equis Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Lots of extra heat with pressure that low. Lucky the tire didn't blow out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman_40 Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Not sure how this has anything to do with selling or buying. I caught a nail in my tire a few years back. Was doing about 140km/h just before and slowed to 80 and the bike seemed heavy in the turns but I assumed it was the rougher road surface and speed difference. Stopped about 20km's after I assume the when I picked up the nail. After being stopped a few mins it was obviously low. Was waiting for a friend 15mins later it was sitting on the rim.
