Tyre pressure for twisties

Had a thought the other day regarding experimenting with different tyre pressures when I hit the twisties

I’ve got Bridgestone S22s and always ran OEM pressure at 36F/42R, was surprised how high they are when I first checked my tyre pressures. Where would everyone set theirs? I’ve heard 28-34F/30-38R

I’m thinking to start with 32F/36R to get a feel, then will return to OEM pressure for daily city riding. Any experiences, advice, and recommendations all welcomed. Thanks in advance!

Was turning right from a light and hit a pile of gravel in the middle of the intersection, luckily just these two fairings got scraped up

What are everyone’s experiences with fixing scratches? Obvious answer is to buy new OEM fairings but I’ll try to save a few bucks where I can

Thoughts on applying decals/vinyl wrap after sanding down the scratches? And if anyone have wrapped theirs, please drop a pic. Thanks!
