RS Tire Pressure Correction

[Jan and Don Draper <ddraper@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just to keep things honest-

I recently found out that my trusty tire gauge is reading 3 pounds low.
So the figures in my previous mail (excerpted below) below should 
read 35 pounds front, 39 pounds rear.

Also, I've softened the rear a bit and am running 35/38 at the moment.
I'm still playing with the rear pressures but have settled on 35 pounds
for the front and a range of 37-39 for the rear.

| I like the following settings myself-
| 
| Suspension
| - -------------
| Front preload - 9 mm
| Rear rebound - 1.75 turns out
| Rear preload - 10 turns out
| 
| Front Tire - 31/32 PSI cold (70 degrees F)
| Rear Tire - 35/36 PSI cold

| There are a lot of opinions on tire pressures.  Read through the digests and 
| you'll get a pretty good spread of intelligent perspectives.
| 
| Unless they provide something in the toolkit ( I haven't checked :->), you'll
| need to improvise a tool to adjust the front preload.  I'm thinking of having
| my friendly locksmith provide me with a proper-sized key blank.  Meanwhile,
| I've been using one of my wife's measuring spoons.
