Hey guys, I need help with my DT 125 R tire pressures.
I want to go check out my tire pressure, because my front tire feels a little bit too soft, but since it doesn’t use the stock tires (converted to sm) I don’t know at what pressure I should be looking for..
The tires have the following measures:
Front tire: 120/70 R17
Rear tire:130/70 R17

Hey, I recommend running 2.0 - 2.5 BAR in your front tire and 2.5 - 2.9 BAR in your rear.
Those figures are common with your tires size.
Try different pressures to get the best riding results.
Thanks for the help, i will start with those numbers and work from there
BTW 2.0 BAR is 29 PSI, 2.5 is 36 and 2.9 is 42
I was searching for someone that used the same setup as i do to tell me what they run, but i didn’t find anyone, however, this bike had a later model that came stock with sm wheels(DT125X) , very similar to mine(Front: 120/70 R17 and Rear:140/70 R17) and in that one’s owner’s manual it recommends 1,8 BAR at the front and 2,0 BAR at the back. What do you think about those figures?
