Hello Salaren,

I´m not sure what kind of Ltd your bike is, because I´m driving a B-model. Therefore look at the below pressure-list:

M1: front 1,75 bar ; rear 1,75/2,0 bar  (to 100 kg / more than 100 kg driver)

Y1: front 1,75 bar ; rear 2,0/2,25 bar

K1, S2, V2: front 2,0 bar ; rear 2,0/2,25 bar

1 bar is about 14,5 psi

Every time good riding in Norway!

Nice greetings from cologne,
Ralf

Excellent Ralf, thanks a lot for the details. It is according to the documents a S1 originally sold in Sweden but now taken good care of here by me i Norway where I just got it approved by the norwegian vehicle authorities. You see, somethimes the Norwegians have to take care of old Swedish stuff, we just can't sit still and see nice Kawasakis across the border are not treated well, can we..?  :-)

The tires mounted is 130/90-16 and 3,25-19. I will follow your recommendations regarding air pressure given for the S2.

And yes, the driving here in the southern part of Norway are just excellent for the time being and had a 340km ride over the mountains yesterday. Riding my nice 750 Twin dressed in a T-shirt at the level of 1030moh. in 25deegres C. is not an everyday opportunity. Only one word describes it, FANTASTIC...

Cheers
Salaren

Hello Salaren,

that sounds very good :)
Here we have also about 25 degrees, but rain, thunder, rain, thunder, rain...... No motorcycling weather :(
Hope, that end´s in the next two weeks. Especially when the Twin-Meeting in Warstein happens.

Michael and his friends will be very happy on their way to the Lofotes on their Twins, while the sun is shining :)

Cheers, Ralf
