Steve, how about baseline pressures for the following:
2002 Suzuki SV650 naked bike (first generation; aftermarket suspension)
Michelin Pilot Power street tires- 120/60 and 160/60 stock sizes
180 lb. rider (without gear)
rider has 40 track days including 10 CSS days
Recommended cold pressure for:
1. trackday (Level 4 CSS day) at VIR or NJMP?
2. spirited backroads riding in West Virginia?
3. commuting?
I am moving down from a Honda 600RR to this lightweight twin and with the different tire sizes, I don't know where to start. Plus I have always ridden Dunlop Qualifiers and the Q2's, so Michelin is new to me.
