Just wondered about the big difference in book and tire maker recommendations ?

Book says 23 /26psi and the tires say 41/41psi, they feell maybe just a little soft, still getting used to this scooter though!

cheers, Rob

My 150 used to be fine on around 1.8 bar front and 2.1 bar rear. (can't be arsed to convert).

41psi sounds way too high to me.
