Thruxton 1200 R - Setting Suspension Post Definitivo

Hi, I try to put an end to all doubts about the Thruxton 1200 R suspension adjustment:
1) Owner's manual recommends tire pressure at 2.5 bar front and rear. Is this the right pressure in all circumstances (I benefited from a pressure of 2.2 bar with the angel gt2)?
2) Front fork preload. From a fully counter-clockwise position, you have to do 7 full rotations to get to the standard position as per the manual (the old manual in Italian said that the first turn should not be counted). Finally, 28 clicks are required for standard adjustment.
3) To soften the front fork it is better to act on compression and rebound. Confirm?
