I've heard he keeps baby Emu's in that thing. I've just never been brave enough to look!

One more thing to consider - if you rode from Cali to Arizona with that low pressure in your tires, they may be delaminated, or damaged in some other way. I believe that it doesn't take very much time to seriously compromise a tire with low pressure.

Maybe you got lucky and the pressure loss was due to a slow leak and the pressure didn't get low until after you got home, but it's something I would keep a close eye on.

Years ago I was two-up on my 1100 Yamaha and hard-charging in a fast sweeper and the bike started a slow weave. It hadn't done that before, so I slowed down as smoothly as possible and checked the tires. Rear puncture.

Before you ride a new bike always do a preflight inspection to make sure everything's full/adjusted/not falling off. That way you have something to compare to when strange things start happening. I've mentioned elsewhere on this board that when my 'Busa was delivered from the dealer the tire pressures were too low.
