Take it back and get the 07 manual. The dealer usually has them for all the bikers on the floor. If not have them order you one on them.

Re: Tyre pressures

My EG 2008 manual has tire pressure in it... It says 35 front and rear unless your riding two up then you put 40 in the rear.

Re: Tyre pressures

Also important to make a habit of checking your tire (tyre) pressures on a regular basis with these heavy bikes. Don't wait for poor handling or even worse to signal incorrect inflation.

My 08 RK manual has the tire pressure table on page 24 of the specifications section,,,,says the same as Smitty says. Also says on page 167, "Follow tire data for correct cold tire inflation pressures". Go figure...
