If you are like many riders, the opportunity that you have to get out on your favorite motorcycle for a ride may be less than you cares to admit. Or maybe you are the envied rider seen tooling up and down the roads every day. No matter which type of rider you are, filling your tires with nitrogen offers long lasting benefits able to stand up to the miles that your bike sees. While the positive effects of using nitrogen may reach beyond its’ intended result, we can all appreciate the added stability the product provides to us while we ride.
Nitrogen keeps your tires cooler than compressed air and reduces pressure build up due to its dry condition. The elimination of water vapor within the tire allows the temperature and PSI to stay consistent during constant, heavy use as well as during time of neglect. It is for this reason that organizations known for high speeds like NASCAR®, Indy Car ® and NASA all put their trust in nitrogen to fill their tires.
On a molecular level nitrogen molecules are larger than those of oxygen, which ultimately reduces pressure seepage over time. Tires filled with compressed air can lose as much as 12 PSI over a 6 month period decreasing your tire’s performance and increasing wear. Your biggest savings in choosing nitrogen will be evident in the amount of wear seen on your tires and since these products are expensive the longer we can keep them in good condition the better.
Speaking of tire life, oxygen reacts chemically with rubber as it passes through causing the rubber to lose its strength and elasticity. This is similar to what happens with an old rubber band that breaks and disintegrates after a long period of time. Nitrogen does not chemically degrade rubber, allowing it to remain supple and resilient. This again puts money back into your pocket because you are taking full advantage of the life of your tires.
Replacing compressed air with N2Cel Dry Nitrogen is the best thing you can do for your tires. It is also the clear choice for your wallet, at only $5 a tire let the only H-D dealer offering nitrogen fill up your tires and get you on the road safely.
