Bike felt a bit twitchy in the wet this morning, it may be because the tyres are new & it was wet but it got me thinking that it could be the tyre pressure...what should the tyre pressure be?

I used to run mine on standard pressures 33 Front and 36 Rear.
Personally till youve got them scrubbed in I'd leave them on those until you have got used to the tyres. Then you can try a few PSI either way until they feel a bit more comfy. I used to find the 020's twitchy in the wet to. But if they are new they IMHO thats probably whats causing it. Just take it steady. HTH

Bridgestone Say 36F 36R, Suzuki say 33F 36R. I asked my tyre deal why the difference and I was told it was in the construction of the tyre and suzuki quote for the standard Metz/Dunlops. At the end of the day its going to be down to personal preference. I suspect as fizz say its probably newness at this stage. I'm running mine 36/36 at the mo and they seem fine but only done 300 miles on them so far, wet and dry conditions.
