As long as we'retalkin PSI, I run the Metzelers, the BIG-ONE in the rear (insert sick joke here) and stock size in the front. When my daughter and I were on a ride the other day I noticed that the bike wanted to wander alot more than usual, this after slowin down from highway speeds then into a small town with 25MPH limit. Would this be caused because PSI increased? This was a very warm day, about 90deg and at highway speeds for about 40-45 minutes
 
Go to metzler's web site. I believe they recommend more pressure. I think the rear was 44 psi. I split the difference between 39 and 44 and added a couple more to the front. Works for me, but check it out first.

The inflation sticker on the neck of my 88 say's. front 35 psi and rear 39 psi. For 110-90-18 front and 150-90-15 rear.

Yeah I saw it too. I'm running with 40/36 and I'm pretty happy.
