this is just my opinion, decide for yourself or see what others suggest, but I'm not over confident in the Conti website pressures as being gospel.
I haven't got RA's on the SV but I have them on my Deauville (excellent tyres for it!). The stock Hond@ pressures are 36/42. That is too hard for the RA's on that bike, far too skittish, though the OE Michelins were OK at that. The Conti website gives 33/36 for the DV on RA's. That's too low, the front loses it's "precision" and the rear gets squirmy. I've ended up mid-way between (35/39 ish) which seems a nice compromise. Use the recommended values and then try a couple of psi different for yourself. You may find you prefer slightly different values. On my SV I've found the recommended 33/36 suits me well with BT020's, I'd be a little suspicious of 36/42 unless I really found it necessary. Just my opinion
