Air pressure in tires

Cut a better line? I have a good line it is between the yellow line and the white line just before I get to the grassy area. Keith Stone sometimes rides with me and I think he wobbles around on the back looking around.

I run 33 front and 41 rear, stock tires still.

I run the stock 33 F 41 R on stock Dunlop tyres. My dealer always adds 4 PSI when my bike gets serviced and I find with 37 F and 45 R it bounces all over the road on the way home, so as soon as the tyres are cool I drop it back to stock. I think the dealers pressure gauge reads low as they say they set it to the factory spec. I know my gauge reads correctly as I calibrate it once a year.
