The same as the xx9 bikes...

 

My 916's are track only, use DOT Race tires, run 31 front, 30 rear.

The question is what tires? With my BT-014's on my SS, I run 30/27. With my BT-002's on my 996, I run 29/24.

 

Bad question, wrong place to ask it. Whatever tires you're using, talk to a representative of the tire manufacturer to get recommended tire pressures.

As mentioned above, it really does depend on the specific tire design, and riding environment. There is no single correct answer, unless you stick with the OE tires and ride only on the street, in which case the pressures are printed in your user manual.

As Jeff implies above, if you plan to ride on the track, you should speak with the tire rep, preferably one at the trackside, who will advise the pressures for that specific tire and condition.

 

haha wow.

 

For what it's worth I typically run 30/30 front and rear. (cold) I have a 748 with Pilot Powers.

 

i just asked a simple question, didn't care what brand, just wanted to see what the average psi was. Word.

 

Well, it makes a really big difference in what tires you are running. Word up, Yo.

For everything other than some of the stiff carcass DOT race (street legal) tires, you would generally be OK with the 30-34 psi front and 30-36 psi rear on the street, depending on tire.

I wouldn't run Pilot Race rears at that pressure though, as they're design for 22-23 psi in the rear. Some of the other newer DOT race type tires are similar. I'd run something like 28 psi max in these on the street, if I really had to run them, as they are very stiff already and ripples/sharp bumps mid corner can be an issue with high psi, IMO.

I personally prefer good street tires on the street, such as the Pilot Power std or 2CT, Qualifiers or Corsa Diablo III. I'd run in the low 30's on the street for any of these. YMMV.

Why don't you give 45 PSI front and rear a try and get back to us. (Word to your mother!)

 

34 front 32 rear on diablos word

 

But there's no simple answer, in fact trying to give one would mislead anyone else reading this thread and looking for guidance. Ask your dealer or representative about your specific tire - your "simple question" has no answer.
