TFT Tire Pressure Page "Spec" Value

My 850gs was delivered with "Spec" numbers on the TFT "Tire pressure" page as 36/42 (F/R) which are the values for with passenger and/or load. The owners manual picture for the TFT description shows 32/36 (one-up). Is there a way to change the "Spec" number when changing tire pressures to accommodate the load?

Just curious, what the "VIN" plate on the neck of the frame read? I generally go by the tires and their rating as many move to a different brand at tire change times.

The VIN plate shows 36/42 but I'm not asking what tire pressures I should use. With RDC and TFT the there is a "Tire pressure" display page that shows actual TP and the differential from "Spec" TP. The F850gs, like every other motorcycle I've owned, has different pressure recommendations for rider only vs rider + passenger and/or luggage. I'm interested in having the differential displayed correctly if I'm running one-up with 32/36 which means the "Spec" value in the TFT needs to be changed.
 
Hey there...I also found this annoying and chose to just disable the "show spec error" or something option in Settings. Now it just displays the current pressure readings without an error message.
