great. I'm sure that you've read that you need to play with the pressures to find the right fit for your bike and tire. Most of us run anywhere from 28-32 psi.

205lbs and running 32psi. 28 was really comfortable, but felt like the sides were buckling a tad bit ... upped the pressure 2lbs at a time until it got "funny" then backed off. Settled on the 32 number for now and have forgotten I'm riding on the dark side at all. Don't even notice it anymore except for the confidence it won't slip out from under me when I roll on the throttle coming out of a corner.
I can see why there is a phobia out there ... I rode a Vmax with a worn tire and the bike felt dangerous. It didn't want to corner at all just because the middle was worn flat. There's something very different about the R3 ... it LOVES car tires.
