Title: Tire pressures
Post by: moto on December 15, 2022, 10:35:20 AM
Hello

 I keep my Drifter at garage where is now a +7 celsius warm.  I noticed that both tire pressures dropped almost
0.5 bars when my Drifter parked at my garage in 3 months without driving and starting garage temperature is +20 celsius.
Can the temperature change in the garage have an effect for this? Front tire is a new and rear tire 3 years old. No holes in tires.

Since the pressures are dropping in both tires, I would suspect the temp variation to be the culprit. I'd inflate to the recommended/preferred pressures and monitor.
