• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Tire inflation spec

Maybe a stupid question, but the operators manual for my Rally does not specify tire inflation pressure. It says to refer to the tire label.

Would that be the sticker inside the service panel (says 20psi front, 28psi rear) or the psi specified on the sidewall (44 psi max load on all 3 tires).

I am at max load (430 lbs) for the trike but not for the tires. I installed a fobo and all 3 tires are 39-40 psi cold from the dealer, purchased about 2 weeks ago.
 
All my life, never knew that.

Well then my tires are significantly over inflated.

Guess the dealer doesn’t know that the sticker rules either.
 
Just some tire info ….. All tires have a Max psi …. you use this in conjunction with the load you are carrying for the vehicle ….. Most folks here go to Auto tires when it comes time to re-place your worn tires ….. Kenda tires are marginal at best …. they also have an unusually high percent of Defective tires and tires that fail …. Currently the best spyder tire being sold are the Vredestein Quatrac 5 model …. they have 16 inch sizes and even some tires ( aggressive winter tread ) for the rear of the Rally model Stryker ……. If you switch to Auto tires ( any brand ) I and others have found that 14-15 front and 16 psi rear ( for the Stryker models ) work best ….. good luck …. Mike :ohyea:
 
Thanks Mike.

Saw a recent thread on this, not sure that there are options yet for the Ryker Rally. Hopefully that will change.
 
Buy a decent tire gauge so you can keep your sneakers at the pressure comfortable to your riding style and within the manufacturer's stated pressure range. The latter doesn't apply to auto tires on a Spyder.
