outrigger tire pressures  (N/A)

Hey Wayne, did every upgrade you suggested, including the car tire.  A weld broke recently and alloweed the fender to come down on the wheel.  When I took the plastic all off, it was scary.  There were 5 welds broken or cracked.  I just had a friend who is a professional welder repair all of them.  I am getting ready to take it down to Danson in KY.  They are about 275 miles from me.  Since I bought it used, I don't know if it was put together at the factory, or if the kit was sold and put together by someone who didn't know what they were doing.  Danny offered to go over it for me and make sure everything was set up correctly.

My question is this, what do you generally run for pressure in the outrigger wheels.  I have 40 in the scooter tires, and over 30 in the outriggers.

There is an 05 Danson 650 for sale that he says has 13 lbs in the outriggers.  Maybe I have been running too much air in them and it makes the ride harsher?

Mike from Danson just emailed back that they put 10-12 lbs in the outriggers from their factory.  Anything more and the ride is stiff and bounces.  Can't wait to see the difference!  Mine came with 28 lbs.

Mike at Danson says they never put over 12 lbs psi in the outrigger tires, because higher makes the tires bounce.  I am 330, so I took my outrigger tires down to 14 psi.  It made a tremendous difference in the ride quality.
