The oasis has gone to the MOT shop
All should be ok.... We even bought a stick on reflector :)
So - Hanna asked me to take it tonight after I got back from work.... All she had to do was check the tyre pressures for me as time was going to be tight....
So get back get changed and having remembered about the alarm - DOH and off I go
Drop the bike off and wander back
"thanks for checkIng the tyre pressures"
"I knew I had forgotten something...."
The first corner had cured my constipation....

So is that even lower than Griff suggests?
Not quite down to those homoeopathic pressures much beloved by track-day enthusiasts ("diluted" so far that there is essentially no actual pressure in there) ....
I guess that the effects were much worse for you than they would have been for Hanna - her slight frame doing little to distort the tyre profile - yours, presumably, flattening so far as to be like running on the rim (not a reference to the pink hat on this occasion)

hahaha i used to run my CB500's pressure on a trackday at 25 front 28 rear, was very good after a few laps, got far more contact patch on such skinny tyres
