I don't have the sticker, but that might go a ways to explaining my experience re: the bike seeming to work better at the higher pressures.

One thing to note is that the stickers are pressures for the OEM tires, and anything we're buying now are going to have way different construction etc. so be sure to check the recommended pressures on whatever tires you're running (I dont' mean you personally...anyone buying tires).

I run 36 front & 40 rear. I find that it always feel solid & still sticky enough for my taste of leaning when necessary.
