Default Tire pressure??

Ok so I never got a owners manual with my bike so Im curious as to what is the ideal pressure on my tires.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; They are Harley Dunlop D402F tires.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; The front bieng MH90-21, the rear MT90B16.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; I know this is prolly a dumb question but I needed to ask.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; Also when I ride 2up do I need to add air?&nbsp\\;Neither of my passangers weight more than 135 lbs.\\\\\\; thanks...

The Dunlop web site should have your needed pressures. I found I needed to run my front tire on my Deuce 8 pounds more to eliminate pot hole wheel damage and possible front end wobble.
