Hi Guys
I did a 1000km trip this past weekend and decided to monitor my tyre pressure.The back was 2.7 and front 2.3 bars cold as recommended by Triumph
I was riding solo with luggage and i noticed in relative cool temps 18 to 23 degrees the back would rise to 3.1 and front 2.5 bars.coming back from Oudtshoorn on Sunday in 38 degree heat the back went up to 3.5 and front 2.7.I know tyre pressure does increase when riding but is this normal?
My Boets GSA only increased about .2 back and front.My Triumph is fitted with Metzler Tourance from new just on 10000 km and the GSA has Anakee 3's.
Should i be concerned and can the tyres handle such pressures??
