Just wondering what you guys run for tire pressure and what you recomend? I have a 400ex with th stock tires on it and the type of riding I do is cross country through wooded trails, open fields, etc.

When I race I like to have a slightly lower air pressure in my tires like 4-6 psi. But when I go in the woods I pump'em up. For one I think they don't det as toren up and I would rather blow a bead on a race track than 5 miles in the woods.

With the stock radials, run about 7psi to help prevent flats.
