tire pressure Q. searched all day.

so ive been at work for the last 4 hours and was reading through the searched threads but couldnt find anything.

does a lower tire pressure help get it higher when clutching it up, or is it just for stability when riding them out?

Re: tire pressure Q. searched all day.

I think i may have just figured out why i cant do a 3rd gear (55-60mph)wheelie anymore with out gettin all frikken wobblie? Been runnin like 12/15 psi for the lot. would psi this low amplify speed wobble? I Used to have no problems. . .Or if someones got other suggestions please chime in.

yep you have to be real smooth to not get wobbles with tire pressure that low in a fast wheelie

Re: tire pressure Q. searched all day.

but would 25psi compared to 40psi be easier even for fast wheelies?

Re: tire pressure Q. searched all day.

I also found that if your tire is flat in the middle that lowering the pressure did not help much but still made it wobble even with lowering the pressure some for slow stuff.
