I never put more than 36psi front and rear.
I go down a couple knee draggin, and up to 38psi rear if there's alot of highway.
All cold psi, and I let a couple lbs back out if I'm going to be riding for a while, as it raises 2-3 psi or more as the tires get hot.
The lower the psi the bigger the contact patch, which is why 34 psi front/rear hot is great for railing corners, but a couple more lightens the stearing and causes less tire wear for cruising.
A couple more psi in the rear still gives good control, but most of it is in the front,
so a bigger contact patch in front is ideal.
No way I'de run 42psi in a front, that's the max, the smallest and firmest contact patch, and is on the edge of giving up traction so much easier.
If you lose the rear, it fishtails, drifts, whatever, it's easy to handle, and usually alot of fun.
If you lose the front, usually you're f'd.
You can save it, but most times don't.
Try 36 front, 36-38 rear and see what you think of that.
If you have a passenger, add one psi to the rear above whatever you have it set at.
90 degree valve stems and a good small gage make them easy to check as they heat, when you stop during your ride.
The best way to adjust to your riding style and preference.
My 2 cents...for whatever that's worth.
