Hey guys and gals, picked up my 2007 today and unfortunately the dealer did not have the owner's manual. They have ordered one for me. The bike has Avon's on it. What is the correct tire pressure? Other bikes I have owned had a sticker on the swingarm, the R3 does not.

Advice would be appreciated since I'm a bit anal about stuff like this.

Thanks!
 
The manual says 34 in the front but I run darkside on the rear. The manual also says 42 for the rear tire.

As stated earlier, the manual states under section 16.4, 34 pounds in the front, 42 pounds in the rear tire.

40/42 frount rear gives the best handling in my experience. Run the frount at 34 & its squirmy on the limit :x More pressure makes a smoother turn
 
I run 36 front and 42 rear and it handles fine!
