I'd start at 30psi all three and make your decisions from there. On my
ST1100 with EZS RX5 sidecar, with 175/65 14s on the bike, 195/45 15
on the sidecar, I've settled at 26psi front, 28psi rear and 26psi sidecar.
I usually ride with an adult passenger and no ballast. When going on a
trip full load of luggage and passenger I pump it up a notch for the interstate.
