Re: tyre pressure - Slaninar - 20-03-12
Pirelli Diablos, for touring (not trackdays): 2.2 bars front (32 psi), 2.5 bars rear (around 36 psi). Best handling. Any harder and tyres become less grippy. That is pressure when tyres are cold, before riding.

Tbh i think its what you get used to, i run 36/42 yes its bumpy as fook but i feel it grips better. & my GF does come on the back sometimes and 32/36 wouldnt work.
All personal preference
Re: tyre pressure - Oxygen - 22-03-12
Anyone asked the tyre manafacturer as they should know what's best for their tyres. I have just emailed Bridgestone to find out. I am running
Front - battalax BT 45F
Rear - battalax BT O21R
These are what the bike came with. I am not sure if it is so good to use differing tyres !

I've run 36/42 on most of the bikes i've had, i'm over 90 kgs its comfortable for me, i have tried lower pressures but it just didn't feel right,but it's all down to personal preference & what your happy with.

After a few weeks on 36/42 I went back to 32/36 this morning...
Well, the suspension on the bike did feel a bit plusher and perhaps a bit grippier too. Cat's eye's in the middle of the road were dispatched with ease and the bike seemed to track a bit easier changing direction, and I gave it a bit more welly round the bends.
This, of course, could also be the result of the warmer dryer weather starting.

My manual says 2.5 bar front and back for Bridgestones so I let some air out. Not sure what they were at before but the handling was much worse at 2.5 bar so I'll be inflating them a bit more.
