How often do you check your tire pressure?

Just curious. I know a guy who checks them every day. We all should.

Me? Once a week... maybe...

let's hear it!

check how? with a gauge like we should? umm weekly if I am lucky. I do the kick the tire test b4 each ride tho lol. that count????

That depends on if your kicking it for the feel or the sound.  I believe the sound is much more accurate than the feel kick!
 
 
 

Got a digital gauge thats also a key ring, takes like 1 minute, all sorts of things can make a tyre lose pressure o/n. Better to find it before you go out, than 60 clicks passed the last fuel station.

Air..a few times a month.  Oil I check everyday for a few days after I change it, then only once in a while. I wash it 4 or 5 times a year.

I check tire pressure every day. The #1 cause of tire failure on motorcycles is improper inflation. Your tires are the only thing keeping your ass intact, so why not take a minute to check them? You can get a cheap little pen gauge at <insert your favorite auto parts store here> for less than 5 bucks.

Before every ride.

I check mine before every ride just for the piece of mind.
 
What are you guys running for tire pressure? I put mine at the tire specs, what ever it is on the 2CTs ( I cant remember ). Sometimes though, I run the rear at 20-25 psi when I wanna ride some long wheelers! Cornering sucks though.

I know I should do it everytime I'm going to ride.. But I don't. I can usually tell by the feedback I'm getting from the bike, but with the new one, nope, not yet.

So I remembered today and did it. Oops. **Bad Andie, NO!**

I push down on my bike tire everyday. I keep my back PSI at 41.

Check everyday before i ride..I keep a small digital gauge in my tool kit..Must be doing something right.The stockers(dunlop 207's) have lasted 8k miles so far with some miles left on them (95% commuting,but that will change in the spring)..

I look and feel them before every ride, but I get the gauge out every few weeks.

I was really good with my EX500 about checking before every ride, but I keep my Honda under cover in the barn about 200 yards from the house, so I don't always remember to bring my gauge with me when I ride.  Even still, I probably check about once every three weeks.

I never really do, but i run nitrogen. I probably should anyhow, but i am confident i will feel it if one is going flat/punctured.

every time I ride. If if forget to check it, it bothers me all day long.   I keep a dial gauge under the seat.  tire pressure is not an easy answer, what kind of tires are you running and what are you doing?   I run 32/34 on my Diablo's.  but its all agressive riding in the back twisties.  I almost never ride the slab.
