Most manuals and tyre manufacturers recommend 36-42. But this is for a middlewight bike, loaded, and with a pillion. So not really relevant to the Tuono.
Have a play around within those pressures, and see what you like, you shouldn't be far out.
Getting really accurate tyre pressures is more or less impossible for most, given that to measure it, you need to have a known ambient air temp, how recently the air was compressed (still holding heat) and the accuracy of the guage you use (no two are ever the same)
Experiment with a few pressures, you'll soon discover what works for you.

I've messed around with pressures, and as long as they aren't too soft or too hard the bike rides well. Tend to use 34 front & 38 rear with my guage and that works for me.
OK heres what my tech tells us here in the USA,Warm to Hot weather 36f--41r Cool to Cold 34f--38r.I like the 34/38 combo myself at all times,might speed up wear,will see.Only 1500mi on my '10 Factory...oh yea messed with the suspension settings.Big Differance/

Dunlop Sportsmarts on mine 31f/35r and also softened suspension off a tad as they are very hard walled, ran higher when on Pirelli
