What is the tire pressure on stock rubber for my 07?
42 pounds is for Max load.don't mean to jack your thread..............But, does your wieght play into tire pressure ? Like would a 165 lbs. rider want his psi. (cold) the same as a 245 lbs. rider ?
I heard that the "magic #" was 4......If your psi was 36 cold, when it (tire) is hot your psi should be 40 hot, If it doesn't get at least 4 degrees warmer, you have too much pressure, and if it's more than 4 degrees than you don't have enough air pressure, is this true ??
I heard it as the 5lbs rule. It sounds reasonable, though I have never seen it documented, only repeated as folk lore. I'M NOT SAYING IT'S WRONG. Does it apply to Honda Rebels and GoldWings equally? Or is only applicaple to sport bikes? Does the rule hold for a quick street ride as well as a fast lap around Daytona? If some one has a link from a reputable source to validate the 5lbs rule that would be interesting.don't mean to jack your thread..............But, does your wieght play into tire pressure ?

And by "warmer by 4 degrees" I assume you mean the tire pressure has increased by 4 psi, not that you are carring around a thermometer and measuring your tires temprature.
