Title: Nitrogen
Post by: pembsgtr on March 10, 2011, 04:45:53 PM
Have just had four new tyres fitted on my car, tyre fitter filled them with nitrogen, has anyone tried the N2 in bike tyres? They charge a £1  per tyre to inflate, may give it a try on the GTR and see if there is any difference when monitoring the tps  :)

Whats the benefit of filling the tyres with nitrogen?

apparently you get no pressure rise or fall as tyre warms up and cools down, they use nitrogen in motogp and formula one, might give it a try to see if the tps does change as much as it does now with fresh air in the tyres
