What tire pressure do you guys run? I run 32 / 32. This is what I run in all my sport bikes. I wasnt sure if the motard style requires more or less air?

That's totally fine.

With a passenger, bump the rear up to around 36.

I run 32F and 36R on the Michelin PP 2CTs. Never ride with passengers, but I like this for me. I dropped a little all the way around and the bike seemed to turn in a little harder.

Out!

i dont really know much about the bike yet, i bought it last thursday before the 4th with 19 miles(i am in love with some guys wife who told him to return it). july 4th did the family thing, july 5th - sold my vstrom did some errands etc... so sunday i wake up and its a little wet. dries up later on. i meet up with all my friends but some where there and some werent. i did a modified route because i had to get home early to pack because this week im away doing my masters and also my inlaws were coming over sunday night. on top of that for the riding i did, i could only keep it around 5grand. i can only say that its so much fun and its a blast to ride. i can't wait to make the adjustment from a sport bike to a motard. it just feels weird going around a corner fast sitting upright and not tucked in. can't wait till friday to go home and ride!

I was running 32 front 34 rear but was advised to up it to 41 rear 36 front to keep tyre profile sweet and even on the road..I haven't changed it yet though. Running Corsa 3s so I guess they wear out fast enough anyway

that probably depends on what tire you are running. I have been running 34f/34r. I noticed that the dealer sold the bike to me with 38 rear and then bumped it back up to there once I took the bike in for the 600 mile service. It still has the bridgestones on her.

I run DCIII's on my track bike. I always start with 34f/r cold at the beginning of the day and adjust as needed.

I'm not tellin' what pressures I run coz you ain't got the same tyre guage as me. All I can say is your guage must be fucked coz it's about 10lb out.
