    Don't think I could run my rear higher than the front young Tyke?

    Yeah thats what I thought but was reading up on the RS2 earlier and it was suggested that pressure, tried it- spot on. Guess you've never touched manufacturer suggestions then??? 36 F 42 R??

    Weight is defiantly mass, the force is gravity and centrifugal force while cornering, the force will be greater if the weight is higher. Huge calculations concerning gravity would be needed to conclude this argument.

    Weight is not mass. A 1 Kg mass would have a different weight on the moon as the force of gravity is less. Weight is the force of gravity and should be measured in Newtons.

    While we're being pedantic, it's 1kg... Not 1Kg... Kg would be Kelvin-grammes... Not really a common unit :) It's a lower case k for kilo prefix...

    The rest is spot on though :)
