Avon Road rider tyre pressures

Forums

I blame advancing yerars but cannot remember for the life of me what tyre pressures to run on my 2A Commando! I've hardly had it out this year as I was busy on a major European jaunt on another motorcycle so now I have returned to riding the Norton - my memory has let me down! The tyres are Avon Roadrider 100/90 -19 front and rear. This is my first time straying from the old TT100, so the tyre pressures scribbled on the side of the bench in marker pen no longer apply!

I ride solo but weigh a solid16 stone but am not a scratcher by any means.

Thank you for your patience in what I know hads been a well aired topic over the years.

Below is a direct response from Avon to my question re tyre pressures such as for your requirements above.

These pressures would apply for two up also.

1972 Combat/Commandos':

 

We’d recommend 29psi front and 32psi rear.
