Having lower pressure means more contact with the road. Start low because once the tyres get warm increase in pressure due to heat will go to a optimum pressure. I run 23 front because I know it will end up at 26 psi
Running higher than that and it will increase even more and will overheat the tyre loosing grip and ruining the tyre

This is from Toyo tyres on the R888's
