i find it skits around and is unstable at 42 rear. 36 seems to settle it down a bit.

Always got the hump with mechanics giving me my bike back with wierd and wwonderful tyre pressures....I just put it down to incompetence or defective calibration of their pressure gauge...maybe they have their reasons !!!

will leave you boys to it and stick with 36-42 until there is compelling arguement/evidence for deflating my tyres....there must be a reason behind Yamaha recommending 36/42....and it has always worked for my riding....'if it ain't broken' etc...
