I have my Suzuki Access with recomended cold tyre pressure of 18psi and 25psi for Solo riding and pressure of 18psi and 36psi for dual riding.
But when I ride the suzuki access for solo riding with this pressure I feel its dragging.

When I go to fill the tyre pressure the users tell me to fill it for 25psi and 36 psi as its for Honda activa.

Kindly whoever is aware of this and practically experienced, kindly help what psi I need to use for both Solo and Dual riding.
Waiting eagerly for reply

Hi guys Never ever ever buy a Zapper they are the costliest and the most useless tyres i have ever used. They puncture atleast once every month.

I would recommend DUNLOP 18 months no puncture perfect grip run almost 20000 kms and probably can do 15 to 10k more.

Hi Deepak

My question is regarding the balancing and alignment of my bike. I own a 2004 model Karizma.

The bike sways to both sides. What would be the reason.

I got my bikes chasis alingned fron the renouned sardar ji in pahar ganj without any possitive result.

Got the handle bridge and cone changed again no possitive results.

Got the rear tire changed resulting in no change to the bikes balance and alignment.

Could you please tell me what should I do to get my bike to go in straight line.

I would also like to bring to your notice that the foot rest frame was cracked from the place whher the axle passes and the nuts are tightened. I got that fixed by getting it welded. The welding is not perfect and the axle was driven through its path focibly and the nuts were tightened. I wonder whether this is the cause for im balance in my bike. The foot rests are also not in line now. The right foot restt is a bit behind then the left one.

Hope you would be able to solve my query.

Thanks

Dear Deepak,
I have Honda Shine, and its rear tire is too narrow, only 2.75×18 48p. It doesn’t grip well on any surface, as far I have experienced. It even skids on low speed.
I wanna change it, but wanna buy MRF Zapper. I found 3.00×18 suited to it, but the tread of the 3.00×18 is not looking good to me.
Again I plan to change it to tubeless, as my rear tube leaked several times.
What is your suggestion for my rear tire ?
Some said that any 3.00×18 tire can be used as tubeless by just changing the nipple. Again, some says its not possible to use tube tires as tubeless. which one is true ?
3.00×18 tubeless is not available here. What should I do ?

The original tyres of Honda Activa Scooter skids after it rains. I experienced this problem more than three times since I purchased the vehicle within six months.Not only this happened to me, this also happened to my son and he fractured his leg and had to undergo a surgery. Now he is not even using this scooter. Is it advisable to replace the flat tyre like in Chetak scooters to prevent skidding. At least i have been using chetak since last 30 years without a single instance of skidding. Pl. advice.
