As he says, that's what KTM say so that's what i go with. I assume it's weight related, don't forget, this is 40-50kg lighter than some that will have the same rubber fitted. I've tried higher pressures at times on it, but they don't feel as nice.Gimlet wrote: ↑Mon Jun 08, 2020 9:14 pm 29 psi sounds very low to me. On most bikes the manufacturers recommendation for all the Pilot series is 42. And the kind of stepping could well be an under-inflation issue.. I don't believe it could be caused by over-inflation.
Try upping the pressure 1 psi at a time.
But then again, i very rarely run a tyre to 2000 miles, let alone 4000, by the time i hit 2000 it's getting squared in the middle and for me, that's it, it's done. I don't care about the fact it can run to 5000 before being dead, i ride bikes for pleasure and having a tyre that's less than round is not nice.
