Greetings all, I have recently purchased a 2000 NTV 650, it is a parallel imports, I taxed it this morning online and rode it to work. I don't have a footpump so didn't check the tyre pressures! It handled like a dog with arthritis, so I stopped at a Garage and found there was only 13 p.s.i in the rear tyre and only 18 in the front, so looked around the bike, even took the seat off, yet alas I couldn't find the pressures anywhere! "That's not like Honda", I thought. So I put 32 in both for now! I don't yet have a manual for the bike, so couldn't someone please be kind enough to tell me what should be in them. Many thanks Greg

Hi Elweirdobeardo...... According to the Haynes manual tyre pressures when cold should be: RiderFront: 33 psi (2.3 Bar) Rear: 33 psi (2.3 Bar) Rider and PassengerFront: 33 psi (2.3 bar) Rear: 41 psi (2.8 Bar) You can find a manual in the forum library: growell.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=libraryOn my bike I normally have 36 psi in the front and 42 psi in the rear because that's what I prefer..... Hope this helps.

On my Revere there is a sticker on the shaft drive arm with the tyre pressures among other things. Good luck with the bike.
Professore.
