Default Re: How often do you top up air pressure?

As the rubber ages it losses it's ability to hold back the gasses. If you stood your bike up over time and allow the tyre to sit with waight on them it also deforlfoms the tyre. This will affect the efficiency of the bead seat.
Condensation inside the tyre can also cause corrosion on the bead seat on alloys.
Remember powder even if you are lapse and only do Petrol, Oil Water, Damage , Electrics, Rubber.
You won't get half the grief less switched on reader encounter.
