2016 1250 w/ABS tire psi for test ride?

I'm going to take a test ride of a 2016 USA 1250 Bandit w/ABS. This bike is a dealer "demo" bike, sitting on the showroom floor with abt. 180 miles on the odo. I would assume OEM tires are installed, whatever those might be.

I want to check and set the tire psi prior to my ride. With gear, I weigh abt. 190 pounds. What would be a good "cold tire" psi for this situation?

Thanks folks......

36f and 42r is what the manual calls for if I remember right.

Curious what dealer is letting you do that? That's pretty cool

tire pressure specs are stickered on swing arm

RPM Motorsports in Lakewood, CO.

They have a 1250 Bandit demo. They'll allow you a few miles
of "test riding" if you radiate evidence that you are almost for sure gonna
buy a new Bandit.

I took the demo out 3 or 4 days ago. Went for a short ride.

What part of CO are you in?

I live in SW Denver, currently ride a 1984 Yamaha FJ1100.
