Sorry can't find feck all on it here besides track stuff.

What are putting in the tires for fast road riding. In my head 42 is a tad hard


17 s1000rr on s20's
 
Without a pillion I would say that dropping 3psi from the rear was ok.
This should help the carcass move and increase heat generation.

Do note that the water channels are largest and most effective at full pressure.
 
Tyre Pressures

Your best off just experimenting to find out what you feel most comfortable with. Just avoid using track pressures on the road.
 
I have S20's on mine and run factory approved pressures for road (2.5 bar front/ 2.9bar rear) have had no issues and I don't hang around out on the road ;)

I've been told by several tyre specialists that this is the best course of action for Bridgestone's.

On track I've been running 29 psi rear and 30 front (warm) and again on the advice of specialists and have found this improved overall feel and grip, especially high speed turn in/ mid corner and exit feel & grip.

34F and 40 r with M7rr Sportecs

I switched over to a 200 rear aswell.
 
I run 35/35 in my pirellis on the road and 31f 25r at track, if I know I'm going to be spending alot of time on the motorway I may increase then a tad.
 
m7rr's i go 34f 36r. i did try a lower front but found it wrecked the front tyre (thread on here somewhere).
 
I have Bridgestone S20 and run F33/34 and Rear 39/40 and that works for me.
Like previous comments its a personal preference that makes you feel right, so play around a little
 
I'm using 36r 33f on the m7's on the road, seems ok to me. I've always been told 40r 36f but don't like that much at all.
