New tyres and chicken strips

[Motig]

OK, just got a set of Pilot Road 2's for the bike. As you'll all know they have that emblem of non manhood the dreaded "chicken strips". Now to me these tyres cost a llot of money which I'll never get back if I ever sell the bike so what should I do do remedy the problem? The best solution I can think of is to number each strip for its position on the tyre then cut it off with a razorblade and store them away. Then if I sell the bike I could get them out of storage and glue them all back on with rubber glue and voila! brand new tyres again , the buyer thinks " What a bargain, brand new tyres. this guy must be simple" and I recover the intial tyre money, a win win situation for all Anybody done something similar?
On a serious note any 1200 Bandit owners running PR2's what sort of tyre pressure do you run ?

PR2's fitted.

36 front and 40 rear. Not on a bandit though.

Chicken strips are wonderful things. Treasure them.

I prefer to have mine with a mild satay sauce.

I hope your joking you would be hard pressed to get rid of all the chicken strips on that bike tyre combo

reccomended pressure is
36 front 42 rear
up to you if you want to go lower but increased tyre wear is likely
