the recommended pressure should be on the sidewall of the tire. on my dirt bike i have tire locks so i can reduce the tire pressure when running on soft sand. they prevent the tire from slipping(spinning) on the rim tearing the valve stem out. if your is a road bike use the recommended pressure on the tire or in the owners manual. too much or too little is dangerous.good luck

Unlike with cars, tyre pressures for motorcycles vary with each model. They are based on the weight distribution and other factors in the design of the specific bike. They are this specific to assure sure the contact patch is always correct in cornering, etc. to give you the best handling characteristics. Tyre pressure is very critical on a bike, since you are only on two wheels!
Check your owners manual. It will tell you what pressure to go with. You should check your tyre pressure frequently - especially before you go on a long ride, or start cutting up in the twisties. It's a good idea to keep a mini pump or C02 canister with you to keep it spot on.

Listen to 51. Use the lable or the owner's manual .
NEVER use the numbers on the side of the tire to set your normal riding pressure. These numbers are the tire manufacturer's maximum pressures, under maximum load.
You don't ride that way, so you DON'T set them that way.
Them that don't believe are welcome to read and compare for themselves.

Check the side of the tyre. The size and recommended pressures are usually embossed on the tyre itself. At least they are on car tyres.

Look on the tire sidewall, it will show the numbers in a range, probably something like 35 - 45 PSI...
THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT SO ASK A DEALER IF YOU CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT.
Check the tires for wear and tear, if worn, replace them or risk a blowout and serious injury.

it should be posted on the side of your tire or somewhere on the bodywork or frame probally under the seat on you bike
-i am not sure if this is right so double check it-
front tire, size/pressure 3.50-10 4PR / 21 psi 4.00-10 4PR / 24 psi
rear tire, size/pressure 3.50-10 4PR / 28 psi 4.00-10 4PR / 28 psi

It depends on the bike and type of tire. it should be posted on the side of the tire itself
