Always set them to what the manufacturer recommends in the handbook is what I always understood. Regardless of brand.

33/36 seems fairly low though.

Handbook, Haynes and the sticker on the chain guard all say 33/36 f/r on my '99 naked. Local mechanic advised to stick to manufacturer recommendation when he fitted me some Storms recently.

Out of interest (I have standard pressures) does anyone have any positive results of using non-standard pressures on the road?
