Hey guys! What pressures are you using? I only weigh ten stone btw... I've got the stock 208's on it at the moment, cos the bike is new and Im not getting rid of two perfectly good tyres - When I replace, I will go for either Bridgestone 010's or 012'2 (which are the sportier?) or Pilots.....

D208 GPA is better than BT012ss. GPA is use for Road use to TRACK DAys. Presently my Pressure is at rear 36 and front 34. Twisties depresuure to 32-34 rear and front 30-32 depends of road temp. I've change mine rear BT010 and front BT012

It all depends on the riding you do. On a 90 degree day, I have seen factory racers set 208GPs to 30 front, 26 rear - which is way too low for the street! When I ride Deal's Gap, I ride 34 front, 30 rear on my 208GPs...and higher for normal highway.

With street tires I generally run 34f/32r on the street, and 32f/30r on the track. I was running slicks at my last track day which was very cold (35-50 deg) and had to go all the way down to 28/28 to get the bike to feel right... Not sure if it was the cold, or the slicks, but they didn't heat up for crap til I dropped the pressure way down... - BA
