Earth's atmopshere is 78% nitrogen as is...what more difference will it make?

 

I have wasted money on more stupid stuff. Dealer charged me 7 bucks a tire. My bike sat from November to just a week ago with no loss of pressure.

I was frustrated by the crappy valve stem access on the 2009 Ultra wheels. I still recheck but not as often and pressure is very constant.

So far 6000 miles on front and rear and they look good to go for a long time yet.

When I get new tires I will go with 90 degree valve stems. I will decide on free air or not then. To each there own.

 

Fill your tires with nitrogen then ride over to the oxygen bar.

 

The tech person who told you about the Nitrogen is full of hot air.. :-)

 

Sounds like a "to each his own" the helium in the previous post sounds like a better winner. Haha. This has deffinately been an interesting subject i must say. Thanks for all the input.

 

It dose work but save your money....just check the tire PSI once a week...If you have a inner tube that will hold a steady PSI better than a tube-less. The local HD dealer here charges $34.95 for two tires...Bunch of X-car salesman.

The Jury is still out about better tire wear etc.

 

I'm filling mine with Helium to make the bike lighter....

 

Maybe that dude that's making space flight "affordable" can bring back some "Space" and start a whole new craze for tire inflation..I'm good with just regular'ole air.

 

A nitrogen molecule is large and will not leak out through the tire like air does and it also does not expand and contract with temperature like air.
I wish I could find someone in Boise that offered it on motorcycles.
I had it put in my wifes truck tires 3 years ago with a new set of tires, it has never lost a pound in any of the tires and they always read the same pressure no matter what time of the year it is.

 

Here on earth (where some of us on this forum live) we have air all around us. It's been a while since I left High School but I think our atmosphere is made up of 79% nitrogen.

So when they're telling you they're putting nitrogen in your tires they're not really doing you a big favor are they?
