Start with what the bike owner's manual suggests and take notes. Take away 2-3 psi lower and see how it feels. Add 2-3 psi and see how that feels. Use an infrared pyrometer to measure actual tyre temps and correlate that with how it feels. I'm a little lighter than most and find best grip is below what's listed in manual. My service manual shows 28/32 F/R
