Make sure the axle is all the way out and the rear brake adjuster is loosened a bit and the rear brake rod disconnected. You may also need to pull off the chain adjusters; sometimes they function as an additional safety device to keep the axle from wandering off.
If you look at the sidewalls of the tyres, you should see the recomended pressures.
Often motorcycles have a sticker either on the rear swing arm with the recommended pressures, or behind the side covers either left or right. Some times it is under the seat. I would look at the tyres though.
As always, correct pressure depends on the tyre fitted but if it is running with the standard tyres that it had fitted from new then:
Single rider: Front is 1.75 bar (25 PSI) Rear 2.0 (29 PSI)
Fully loaded (Panniers and or pillion passenger) Front 2.0 bar (29 PSI) Rear 2.25 bar (32 PSI)
These settings from the book for a 2006 model, though I imagine that they apply to all with very little if any variation
