Tire Pressure Not the ussual Question

Whats up fellas,
Well here is what im running 2002 gsxr 600 with pirelli in the front, and a metzeler in the back, I am running 34F36BPsI. My question is, i am looking for a solid pressure to put in my tires for everyday street riding, good cornering etc. BUT!! This is the tricky part, I want a good pressure to also ride wheelies out at the same time riding street.

So i guess to sum it up for you guys, Whats the best tire pressure for Everyday Street and occasional Wheelies a couple or so everyday on back roads only!! I was thinking 30F 32B? but im not sure let me know guys.

Ideally, around 30-32 psi. if you are having problems stunting/wheeling at that psi, it wont hurt to run it around 25, the bike just wont handle quiet as well... and the tires wont last as long.

There is no PERFECT psi, at least not for everyone. you have to find where YOU are comfortable through trial and error.


Also, every tire is different, and will like a different psi, depending on make, how old it is, how much rubber is left on it.


hope that helps even though it might have made things more confusing.
