Hi all.
On another thread, got this from Chipdoc. Rather than highjack, thought I'd ask here.
On the kickstand being too tall:
"That part is easy to fix, Alekkas! Pop off the right hand middle fairing - the one on the right side under the saddle. You'll find an air valve just like a tire. Put 40-50 lbs of air in that thing and the bike will sit right up and suddenly your kickstand will be the right length."
My wife took a short ride and liked the comfort level. Dampening is on 2 (I know it should be higher, but she likes a soft ride) On my air gauge, it was at 10PSI
So Chipdoc and everyone else:
I filled and leveled at 25PSI
Do I check air level with a simple air gauge (as accurate as I have)?
If she prefers it down around 10, which I think she will, will it cause damage?
Any fear of early wear by changing air pressure frequently depending on the ride plans for the day?
Sorry for all the questions. New to the bike - and air shocks. Any help appreciated.
