Grab yourself a good quality tyre gage set your pressures where YOU feel comfortable go out on one of your average rides once you have stopped check your pressures again to see what increase in tyre pressure you have, for me as an example ( i'm currently riding a TL1000R ) i set my tyre pressure at 36psi front/rear ( Street riding ) and generally the tyre pressure increases by 4 pound using pilots 2ct, track day at Phillip Island i'll run on a warm day ( yeh i know i said warm believe it or not it does happen ) Pirelli sc1 front & rear running the rear cold @ 24psi come in and they are up to 30/32 psi front 26 cold come in 30/32. Tyres have come a long way with technology so it would pay to check with the manufactures ratings/ compounds. As mentioned above its a personal thing but as long as it has YOU riding with confidence run what you FEEL is right.
