As chiefgrooveguru says really IMO. You’re looking for as full a contact area as possible without the tyre feeling squirmy, or burping. Lighter riders will feel the difference more as a too higher pressure will make the tyre not absorb the ground as well and feel like the rebound on the forks and/or shock are set too fast, thereby reducing control. Control is best when the tyres are in contact with the ground, possibly goes without saying 😀
I set mine from the basic formula given by Stan, which is so basic, I can’t remember it, but it’s something like divide the rider weight in lbs by 7 to give you front pressure in psi and add 2psi for the rear. Don’t quote me on that, but found it as a good start point and I set mine as 21psi front and 25psi rear as my track pump gauge reads. It’s accuracy is academic, it’s how the tyres I have fitted feel. I use lower pressures on my SS than my FS and lower with tyres that have stronger sidewalls.
Hope that helps?
