Contact Patch: Monitoring Tire Pressures (TRAILER)

[@stinkerdoodle1737]

Dave just got full access and watched this video I learned a lot didn't realize how long the videos were (this one is a hour long) and full of good info I will be watching all through the off season any one on the fence about getting full access its well worth it.

Dave I just re watched this episode and saw the 450 triple guy and was wondering what kind of lap times are you running on your bike on a race weekend at Thunder Hill East? Also you said you prefer a more planted tire was wondering what tires you run.

[@catalystreactionsbw]

Lap times are 1.57's at Thunderhill, 1.47's at Sonoma and 1.54's at Button Willow. I choose the Bridgestone V02 slicks, soft front and medium rear.

Greeting from Scotland with a high of 55°F and seen as hot! Is it worthwhile measuring the rolling circumference of the different tyres or will it not make that much of a difference ?

[@catalystreactionsbw]

Ah yes, the brisk summer temps of Scotland :) Yes, it is. Wet and slick tires differ substantially. That affects geometry accordingly.

Dave question what name brand and maybe model number do you use for your tire pressure gauge thank you

How agressive can I go with my final drive ratio my current ratio is 40/14

[@catalystreactionsbw]

Depends what bike it is. Most modern engines 600cc and over cannot go below a 14 tooth front sprocket due to chain angle. A 14 tooth has great initial drive but power falls off quickly. Final drive kits are mostly sold one tooth down in the front and 2 teeth bigger in the rear.

Dave Moss Tuning how to get right chain size for the change ratio

[@catalystreactionsbw]

I stay with stock chain size unless it is a race bike
