Default Tire pressure with passenger

I forget what I used to run at last year with a passenger as far as tire prressures. I have gained some weight this year sadly but I was wondering what people ususally run their psi at when with passengers. I have a 200 mile ride with her coming up on sunday and want it to bee good to go to course

The manual states for front/rear PSI: 36/42 (for recommended and maximum) and a maximum weight limit of 386lbs (395lbs for Canada).

I never change it. Rear is usually between 35 and 40 on a normal day, and lowered a bit if I know I'm gonna hit some twisties.

As supersnake said. Just add a touch of preload to rear and front suspension when riding with passenger and you're good to go.
