tire pressure??
Hi every body, I just bought new Pilot Power Michelin tires for my F2, 160-60-17 back and 120-60-17 front, anyone knows what would be the proper tire pressure for normal road use, the roads are not perfect all the time down here in the caribbean, some bumps now and then, although I do sometimes ride at speeds over 200km/h. temp is around 32°C.
Thanks for your time!

RE: new tires
Yes, but I was told and also read that the pressure marked on the tires is to high, and that I should use lower pressure on my tires, is this true?? the guy that installed the tires recommended 35 front and 38 rear. So what would be the difference if I inflate my tires to what’s marked on them which is around 40 or lower. I would think that the manufacturer recommends a certain pressure for a reason, right?

RE: new tires
don't listen to any of the above !!!
36psi front
42psi Rear, michelin, continental, Avon, Pirelli, Bridgestone, Metzler, Dunlop.
dosent matter what tyres you fit and no incease for passengers either
look up in the manual. or ask any tyre manufacturer & they will give you the same as I have.
keep to these pressures and you won't go wrong,
don't think a little lower and you'll get more grip you won't
look after your tyre pressures and you tyres will look after you on bad bends.
also if your above 11stone set the rear suspension to #5 solo riding
