Tire pressure on Uly for off road applications... I've run at 25 pounds pressure without problems... Has any one run lower? | ||

Never felt the need to drop the pressure, but it would be interesting to see how low before you risk damaging the rim or tire. | ||

It all depends on the terrain. If running on rocks and larger gravel I keep a higher just to protect the rims. It is a little squirely sometimes. Generally the soft terrain I go to 25 but haven't ventured lower. With the Distanzias I ran a normal pressure all the time to protect the rim because of the smaller 160 tire. As sensitive Buells are to handling, tire pressures off road will make a ton of difference if you try it. Another excuse to but a tool like a handy small compressor and tire repair kit to take along for the ride. | ||

My tires were pretty low on this outing. So much so that the bike was nearly useless on the street - the tires were pretty much mush. I did not suffer any rim damage from the outing. My guess is the pressure was somewhere in the low 20s.  |
