[dsn_klr650] tire pressure
Posted: Mon Apr 10, 2000 6:09 pm
i haven't actually used it on the scooter yet, but i have confidence in my
blackburn mammoth mtn bicycle pump. it's only about 12-14" long, easily fits
in a camelbak or toolpak, and pumps up a mtn bike tire to 40 psi in under 2
minutes. i've been using it for years on mtb expeditions and races. i'd
guesstimate (from using my big floor pump on bikes and motorcyles), that to
go from say 15 up to 25 psi on a klr rear wheel would probably take 5 mins
or less. maybe if i'm bored tonight i'll try it.
it doesn't have a gauge, so you have to either guess well, or use a real
one.
