?DUMB? Hawk Tire Pressures

nij_tp · 06-12-2020, 03:08 PM

HI so probably a really dumb question but my search power is weak.

So Hawk 99% road use running Shinko 705's what should the tire pressure(s) be? I got a (rear) flat the other day and didn't have the tools to remove the tire (there now in the post) so had a local power sport shop (they sell all sorts of enduro, Atv and in the winter snowmobiles) They put a new inner tube and rim tape in and set the pressure to 20 psi that seemed low to me, but what do I know Im a newbie.

So could someone confirm what the range ( I know there will be several answers) should be front and back for mostly road use. This is my first motor bike and i'm only used to my pedal bike and cars, trucks and RVs and never been that low :-) .

As always thanks in advance for any and all help.
