Tire Pressure

As I posted last week I got a 2002 R1100S and I was reading the owners manual. It says front tire pressure is suppose to be 14.5PSI???? That's gotta be a typo right?

Yes it is. 32 is what I think most run.

Cheers

I have the same misprint in an 05 R1100S owners manual.

always believe the manual. they know everything. they're never wrong.

i will continue, as i have for years, to ride at 14.5 because that's what they said to do and they know better than anybody.
