Re: Missing my GZ250...
I think it would be useful to know what psi your tire likes to be at certain times. If you wrote it down, you would know if your tires were WAY off from normal if you randomly decide to take an evening cruise and check them at 6pm vs. only checking them at one time per day, such as in the morning. I always check my tires around 10am before I head to school, so I figure my reading is pretty standard, BUT the tires haven't warmed up in the sun yet and with a high of 85 it's still probably only 74 outside, so my tires will probably go up 1 or 2psi just by sitting at school all afternoon. I only add air if the tire is below 24 (since I have the bigger front tire, I've been riding around with it at 27psi and it seems great, but I can't really tell a difference at 26 or 25.)
Suzi, just stick around and keep asking questions. I feel stupid asking a lot of questions but it's better to look dumb on the internet than do something in real life that gets you crashed/hurt!
