Correct tire pressure depends on the load you carry: most manuals specify higher pressures for riding with a passenger or luggage, which is why the solo and two-up columns differ. Values are listed in the unit used by the source manual (psi or kPa). Check your tires cold at least once a week and always follow the figures for your exact model and year as given in the owner’s manual or on the swingarm sticker.
