From what Ive read for wet weather use the tyre should be inflated at least at the recommended pressure (more rather than less) which for the Busa is 42psi front and back to ensure that the grooves have not "collapsed" making them trap water.
Cheers

to collapse the grooves you would have to drop alot more pressure than 10psi from recoomended pressures.
fully inflated = slippery on the busa,
36psi = no one around me for minutes in the wet :)
this is my personal experience however, proved worthy on icy cold and wet tasmanian roads around cradle mountain especially
i did only get about 3300km's from my set of brand new rubber though
