CB250

A friend of mine at work has just bought a CB250 (don't laugh, it's a step uo from a step thru and CG125) but doesn't have a handbook. Can anyone tell us what tyre pressures he should be running?

Please

Is that the super 'wet' dream 250 or the older 250 G5 or K4?
I seem to remember I used to run about 30-32 F&R on my old K4.

1994 CB250.
I asked if it was a 250N but apparently not, looks a bit like the "Nighthawk" import model but it's a genuine UK model.

Thanks peeps.

Step UP?????

2003 Varadero 125 15bhp (same as CG125)

2004 CB250 20bhp

It does 80mph downhill with a following wind - same as my Varadero did.
