Wish I was comfortable with that on my Road Smith. If I'm feeling real brave sometime, I might run them down to 20 psi for 20 or so miles, see if they heat up.

Saw a lot of responses on this subject stating they're running the air pressure down around 20psi. I still have the stock Dunlop's on my '14' TG. I checked mine last night and they are still at 26psi. I decided to drop mine down the 22psi to see if that made a difference and boy was I surprised. This morning riding to work was WAY BETTER than before!!! Tonight when I get home I'm going to drop down to 20psi to see what if any difference that makes. ThumbUp
are you running the Michelin Commander II on the front? which Michelin are you running on the rear? I have a '12 triglide shrine, and am considering the change you made; please advise!I have Michelin tires front and rear don't have many miles on them yet but they handle the road very well. very good in the rain and softer ride.
Hmmm... That is a good point...That's how mine were worn. I kept the air pressure at 26 to 28. Had plenty of tread on the outside edges, but not in the middle...as many curves and twisties that we have to ride thru here in Ideeho, with chip sealed roads that resemble grinding wheels from hell,, you would think it would be the other way around. I am running my new tires right at 28 lbs.
