Just wondering any one tried any different setting yet I been slowly tweeting but no settled on anything yet
 
I was wondering the same thing...
The recommended type pressure is 42psi for the rear tyre, that sound quite high to me, at least it's higher than any previous bike/tyre that I owned.

It made me wonder if perhaps the high pressure contributed to the premature wearing of my Dunlops down the middle.
 
Front + 10% & rear + 20% from cold to hot pressure.

Running F30/R30 put me around F33/R35 psi. That mean the tire will get enough heat and grip.

I've have put the recommended psi in both my tyres for years (all my bikes have been 36/42)! and I've never had premature tyre wear from "high pressure"! I have never used crap tyres tho so can't comment on the premature wear on the dunlops...
