Just joined and first time on the site. I just bought a Goldwing 1500 that has been Motor Triked. I really like the bike and it is in great shape. I have rode bikes off & on for 30 years so bikes them selves are not new to me. Trikes are and when I got it home I noticed the front tire had well over 50psi. Rear tires are like new and only had 20psi in them(235x60Rx15 radials). Bike weighs 1185 triked and my question is, did he have the extra press in the front tire for a reason? is 20psi enough press for the rear tires. On my first ride the bike seemed to ride really stiff, even with no air in the rear air bags, which I discovered later, steering was a little harder then I had expected and also had a little tire wobble at around 30( especially when slowing down) if you were lightly holding the handle bars. Guess I'll get used to the difference with some more road time. Thanks for any input on the tire pressure.
