Tire Pressure

Hi guys, after taking my Stella in for service and replacing the old Michelin S83's with new ones they set the tire pressure at 25psi both front and rear. The owners manual recommends 17psi front and 25 psi rear (35psi with pillion) and I have kept to that. That said, I kind of like the way the bike feels at 25 psi on the front. Steering is waaaay quicker. I'm curious at what psi other folks keep their tires. Are there any disadvantages to keeping the fronts at 25psi?

Tubed 25 front 30 rear, tubeless 30 30 (different suspension)

Higher will give better response and wear but also a stiffer ride
