i usually run 40 psi in rear with the night dragon. i think you can go 42. i have them on my UC. also ran them on my road king. i always get better milage out of the dunlop but i like the feel of the night dragon in both wet and dry. i can never get more than 9xxx out of the ND's but i would go ahead and put one on the front. makes alot of difference

Pirelli has recommended tyres and pressures on their website, so visit them for that info!
