I know concensus of opinion says 20lbs on the front but what is "best" on the stock rear of my RT?
It says on the swing arm 28PSI
When I checked it to see before I put the goop in it was 20.5
I sure hope that is only because it has sat for couple of months..
sheesh if not no wonder gas mileage sucked

I think the latest is 25 PS I. As the tire heats up it grows in the center of the tread at the higher PS I. Thereby wearing out the tire prematurely. Very good results have been reported at 25 lbs. I bought my gs with 1700 miles and the tire looked half shot in the middle. After an additional 2200 miles since I got it the tread has not changed. This is at 25 lbs.

Rear tire pressure??
This one is a puzzler for sure! Obviously if you carry too much air in it, it'll wear out the center...
But... since it's a bike tire and is pretty flexible, if the pressure is a bit TOO low, it'll balloon out at highway speeds and STILL wear out the center!
I've heard of other folks having good luck down at about 25 to 26 pounds...

Actually you kind of did!
But I was pointing out that wearing out the center portion of tread can be the reuslt of EITHER too much or too little air in the tires...
And diagnosing it can be rough under these circumstances.
