We would advise that for your Yamaha XJR 1300 if on tyre sizes front 120/70 ?€" ZR17 58W TL (tubeless) and Rear 180/55 ?€" ZR17 73W TL the tyre pressures (set when tyres are cold) should be as follows:-
Front ?€" 36 psi (pounds per square inch)
Rear ?€" 36 psi (pounds per square inch)
you should be running 8 ply tyres on the vehicle to carry the maximum load as required by the regulator
The recommended tyre pressure will be on a decal attached to the drivers door ( probably on the door frame under the latch)
Having said all that I recommend 45 psi for the rear and 40 for the front
If you run any less ,the ride will be smoother but if you load the vehicle, the rear tyres are under inflated and prone to failure from overheating
tyres are manufactured to run at a certain pressure due to the construction of the case. Talk to a tyre shop as to the pressure you should be using for the tyres.
hi, is this a woble, or a shake from the handlebars, when you let go of them, or while you are holding them, had new tyres or the wheels been removed recently, check front wheel spindle is tight 100nm 36 psi in front tyre, also check with the wheel of the ground that it spins freely, brake binde will cause this, has the rear wheel been removed and not tightened up correctly, has the spacer inside the rear sprocket housing been omited, remove wheel and check it in place, this will be evident if the rear wheel spindle continues to turn even when fully tight, check tyre pressure 36psi and tighten rear wheel to 100 nm also.
lastly a tyre which has been resting on the ground in the same place for a long period of time will also cause shakeing as the tyre carcus becomes distorted not visible to the eye, and only when you change the tyre do you experience the benefit, can also occure with a new tyre of low grade. paul
Yup nice question. For any vehicle accurate tyre pressure will give you better tyre life, low running cost, etc. Here is a chart for car tyres
click here.
For bikes i havent found any chart. basically in india rear tyres having 100/90 18inch maximum tyre pressure is 32psi. front tyre having 2.75P or 80/90 18 inch uses 24 psi pressure.
and do check your tyre pressure twice a month.
That is normal, most motorcycles run different size front and rear tyres. My BMW has a 21" in the front and a 17" in the rear. The tyre you buy should match your riding style. Don't get a race tyre if all you do is communting, the tyre will wear out too quickly. Expect to pay $150 or so for a rear tyre, perhaps a little less for the front. Mounting & balancing is normally $20-$50 per tyre. Many shops will not mount a tyre you bought somewhere else, keep that in mind if you order tyres from the internet.
ok have you checked that the tyre pressure is the same on all four wheels or it could be that the rear axel is not being lubricated properly check the bushing.
When this happens it means that you have a convergence problem. Go to a tyre fitter, mention the problem, and after fitting the tyre ask to perform a balancing and convergence setup on rear wheels, this should fix the problem.
