FRONT-36
REAR-42

That is what the manual says but I would run 32-36 in the rear unless you are 2 uping it.

I have yet to understand why the manuals have such high pressures. I'll say 32-38 is ample pressure for your tires.

When I run lower pressure in my rear tire, the whole bike feels unstable in turns. Once I lean past a certain point, the rear end shutters. Kinda scared me the first few times. Once I got the tire pressure to 42 PSI it stopped doing that. Have you experienced this? What is the advantage to running lower pressure? Thanks!
