Just bought my new ex400 yellow, was wondering if anyone has any advice on what psi to run for trails, the guy told me not to exceed 4psi on the tires, they just seemed to flat for the trails, any advice would be great, thanks!!!!!!!!

It wont really matter what you run beings that you will just be sitting there cleaning mud off yourself from my roost as I disappear from sight. :devil

i like about 5 1/2 to 6 lbs in the fronts,and only about 3 1/2 in the rear.this keeps the rear tire soft and able to soak up sharp rocks without popping a hole in em.Also give a lil better traction.THe fronts i like harder so i can hit logs and such to jump over em.

Dang you both talk some pretty good smak. you should come down and ride with us.

On most of the trails I run 6 in the front 5 to 6 in the rear. I dont like flats. I got a bad snake bite down at Washugal this year because I was only running 4 in the rear. I forget to air up after a trip to Moses lake.

south end mostly, capitol forest, tahuya. Naches trail a couple times a year and private property. We hit all the poker runs during the spring and summer then ride any where we can in the winter. Mostly the pig pen, or the ranch. When snow falls we go up to the airfeild at buck creek and ride there.
