Most bikes respond well on the street with a minimum of at least 32 PSI front and I usually run 34-36PSI in the rear..the tire sidewall will show 41 PSI but that makes the tire very stiff
On hte track it is quite a bit different and you can ask someone that has been to that track what they run or know

the 36 front might be acceptable but the rear at 42 is WAY to much...good for mileage but not good for adhesion unless you are really heavy and/or riding two up. I stick to the pressures I stated before.
