What size wheels do you have Keith,
I run 15in fronts at 14psi, I felt that the ride got harsher when I tried higher than 20psi in the front. Rear at around 18 to 20psi seems ok for me.

Hi Keith I got 16 inch fronts and 16psi seems good under 15 and it moves about and like slugshot says over 20 is too harsh. The rear is at 20 psi and fine, I used to be around 17/18 but if I put a passenger in it didn't feel very nice :-)

Thanks for advice guys. My wheels are 16 front 18 rear. When I got it the elderly guy had stuck stickers saying 30 psi on all the wings but I knew that was two high. Need to look at suspension as it's way too sort at the moment.

Hi Keith, 30 psi heck that would be a hard ride, what's wrong with the suspension does it sit too low. I have around 4in clearance at the front and 5in at the rear without my weight in it. Are you sure the rear wheel is 18in, I thought it would be a 17in as that's what the r6 used.

1,5 atm rear 1,8 atm front More or less.... That's a high pressure in the fronts Edwin, drop the pressures and enjoy the ride.

Hi Keith, 30 psi heck that would be a hard ride Kevin Euhm, that's 2.04Atm and spot on with my setting (17", progressive springs (3x),öhlin rear shock, tweaked by Hyperpro engeneer (all 3 of them) and testdriven urban and high speed/full load. Not sure if 2Atm is fine on track but on bumpy roads the fenders don't bounce on the tires after I payed a visit to Hyperpro and corners like a go-kart rock solid. Need to note my seats have firm comfort padding. He didn't comment on the tire pressure so I recon that's not an issue but I'll ask him. Seems like we have different settings stock springs VS progressive wound.

I realise 30 was two high. Will try lower pressure
My suspension seems really soft. But the elderly get had altered it so I'll try messing with it my self and see where I get to
