Hmmmmm..... most are sorta on the low side, IMO.... or at least, every bike I had on that list, I ran the pressures a good bit higher than what they recommend...

Maybe they get a kickback from the tire manufacturers...

The pressure for my Ducati 900SS was pretty close to what I run, but that was about it. It seems that 34/36 is their favorite pressure setting. Could it be that the have a surplus of their valve caps in that range???
