        First you should look for the max tire pressure on the tire side
wall.  My tires say 35 psi - I run them at 33 psi.
Some tires have 44 psi max.  I believe Tire Rack states that anything under
36 psi is under inflated.  I have also seen 51 psi max and I have no idea
what to set them at - I have not found any information about them.

Second consideration is ride quality.   More psi can = a harsher ride so you
adjust accordingly.

Remember any specs on Tiger tire pressures are probably for bias ply tires
and out dated.

I've been searching archives and the internet for something on tire
pressure. All I came up with was this cool repop of an old R&T article:
http://www.classictiger.com/magazines/rnt1164.html

It says 31 all around.  My SV Owners Handbook says 24 all around, except
high speed, then 26 in the rears.

I can't seem to find a TIger Owners Handbook in my dad's stuff.  Was there
one?  I have to assume there was.
