Thanks peperino

That is now 2 sources quoting lower tyre pressures than the UK RX3 recommended tyre pressures.

Colombia RX3

Front 100/90-18 26 psi
Rear 130/90-17 28 psi (32psi with passenger)

My centre tyre wear was abnormal and worn out after 3000 miles, typical of an over inflated tyre, not the usual centre wear that one would expect.

I should of noticed it earlier

Having now ridden my bike with lower pressures, the bike feels good on the road with no problems. Hopefully i will get a few more miles out of these tyres now.
