tire pressure???? suspension pressure???

[flangar]

Another question from a new owner......looking for the recommended tire pressure and also normal running pressure for the air suspension and how long the pressure normally holds when parked.......thanks for all your input

depends on your trike kit manufacture . in my motor trike/ ultra conversion I use the stock pressure in the front and 26lbs in the rear.

my air ride is set at 25lbs and rides good

check your manual

As far as what's recommended tire and suspension air pressures are concerned, I believe it's a matter of personal preference. I ride solo pretty much of the time and find the a front tire pressure of 38 - 40 lbs. with the front shocks set at their softest (greatest degree of travel) setting, works well for me. I run about 25 lbs. for the rear tire pressures and the shocks set at their least amount (harshest) setting. This gives me the most comfortable/stable ride and the easiest, least amount of effort, on the steering. My air shocks on the rear suspension are set around 15 - 20. If I'm pulling my camper trailer, I'll run around 45 - 50 on the rear air suspension and rear tire pressure at about 30 lbs.

I guess I should have mentioned that I am a new Stallion owner and the specs would be different on a Harley trike....thanks anyway for the reply

I run the factory recommended pressure in the tires. It depends if I am riding by myself or with my wife what pressure I use in the rear shocks. When I ride alone I use a low pressure around 20 pounds and if my wife is with me or if I have the trailer I use 28-30 pounds in the rear shocks. My shock will keep the pressure all day and it will loose a pound or two overnight. My Stallion is an 08, hope this help you.:wave4:

Here is yet another suggested set of pressures; front shocks-lower 1 click down from the top and put 36-38 in the tire, rear leave the shock setting on the high setting from the factory, I lowered mine and it felt like we would tip over so I put it back to factory. I run 10pis when riding single and 15-20 when double with the rack installed for luggage. I run 25 psi in the rear tires all the time. Another note is that at first, I ran the recommended 42 psi in the front tire and when I replaced the valve stem, I noticed that the center of the tire was worn more than the sides ie too much pressure. The Stallion rides much better now.

I run my wifes Stallion much the same as Tom does. It is a very good ride at those settings.
