[Hi From Another Side Of The World]

The Phillippines have a good racing culture....ask some of the local underbone guys/participate in their races.

 

 

races pretty good racing scene here,racing aint just my cup of tea,plus its mostly underbones,standard bikes and sportsbikes are just starting here, 400cc-600cc are for the rich people here

the bike is mainly for road use,track is something that is every once in a while thing but i have not tried yet,plus the lack of someone to teach is one thing or atleast coach...

 

the tires are mostly road tires not slicks,

as for the vendor ,no information on the site,

nothing really recommended psi.

 

and as far as tires sizes,the guy where i bought the tires suggested those sizes, ,i did not know this forum nor anything about bikes,still on the process of learning ,watching videos and reading articles,)

 

@ktk_ace

 

thanks for the link,,thou my rear suspension is adjustable i think,no one here seems to know how to fine tune it to my weight,still reading articles about that too...so i can DIY i guess,but front end is not.

 

but the link is helpful,would you mind if i ask here again if i dont understand something?

 

 

i would apologize in advance, we do have safety seminars here,in which i did attend but nothing as extensive as what i read about or even watch at keith"s twist of the wrist 2......

 

currently...

 

from stock

modifications made by the dealer was lowered the front 1 inch to accomodate my height, 5"4"

and just the tires...

hi,i am currently on another side of the world,where no superbike schools are present,maybe there are but way too expensive,so i was hoping to learn,actually already am learning a couple of things here and there.

 

 

 

[Tire Pressure Questions]

so this may have been asked a lot already,but for give me if i ask a very stupid question.

 

i want to know how to compute the right tire pressure for my weight and suspension i guess.

 

the tricky part is my bike is considered a small bike in your country ( i Live outside US),150cc,naked bike.

i changed tires over to something bigger since my actual mags can ccomodate something big.

 

here are a few details

 

rider weight is 120-130ish pounds

150cc bike,

3.0 rear mags,with 130/70 tire

2.95 front mags with 100/90 tires

 

any inputs will be appreciated.

 

stock tires were

110/80 at the back and 90/90 in front,recommended psi are 33....
