PSI is not affected by the position, placement or orientation of a wheel and tire. It is a static reading which can only be affected by temperature change, barometric pressure and the properties of the gas used to fill the tire ( in this case compressed air ).

Motorcycle Tire Stand

It really does not make enough difference. When tires are changed they do it off the bike. when they check it they are normally on the kick stand. Your pressure will never be perfect. Even the temperature will play a role from day to day what shows on your tester.

On the kick stand. You want the weight of the bike on the tire.
Weight of the bike will increase pressure slightly.

the tire pressure will read the same no matter how the tire is, on the bike no stand, or off the bike. the laws of physices are constant!

Check it before setting out, either way. The weight of the bike should not change the pressure significantly (not as much as tire temperature, at least), but an under-inflated tire can kill you.

like everyone else said, it doesn't matter. What does matter is you need to check the pressure before you ride it anywhere so the tire doesn't get warm. That will make the tire hot and expand the air in it and vary your psi.

Makes no difference. The tires pressure is the same.

Not enough difference to worry about. Be sure to check tire pressure 'cold' (before you ride).

Kick stand is ok, Johnnie G
