An airy tale

Filed in Daily Photo, Motorcycle Maintenance
Tire inflation

We have those little air caps which are supposed to not show green when the tire pressure drops below a certain level. They don’t work. I knew that my bike’s tires were not right from the way it handled. When this bike has low tires, it seems to flap from left to right as I slow to a stop, and it feels a bit like riding a boat. The rear tire was at 22lbs. It’s supposed to be at least 29. Feh.

Don’t trust those things. Their only use is to make it really easy to spot where the valve is for your regular tire pressure check.
