749R tyre pressure advice ?
 

I have just checked the pressures in my tyres and the front was 26 and the rear 30.
Maybe this was why my service was cheap a couple of weeks ago, they cannot have checked my pressures !!!

Anyway what are people running in the standard Diablo corsas for road use only, I though about 32front/34 rear ?

I haven't got an R, but my 749 is running 34F and 36R with Diablo Corsa's.

36F/36r...because its easier to remember!

On my 748S, Diablo Corsas I run 31F/34R.

The 749 user manual suggests 2.1 bar front, 2.2 bar rear which equates to 30.5 psi front and 32.5 psi rear.

That is for a 2003 749S, don't know if tyre profiles/sizes are different on the R.

I'm running 32.5F 35.5R, which I think is 2.2 bar and 2.4 bar.

I'm running the pressures recommended by Michelin, not Ducati.

Just checked and Pirelli also recommend 2.2 bar and 2.4 bar.

Interesting - I've read discussions on tyre pressures before and depending on who you speak to either say go with tyre manufacturer or bike manufacturer recommendations.

Yeah, it's a bit of a lottery isn't it?

Personally, I reckon the tyre companies are going to know what's best so I go with them.
