Default Ds650 rear shock question

I was wondering if anybody knows the stock psi on nitrogen that's supposed to go in the rear res?? I've got a nitrogen tank and built a setup to fill shocks etc.

Thanks

From my shop manual...

Gas Pressure Adjustment

Preset pressure regulator to 2070 kPa (300 PSI),
this gas pressure will restore the correct pressure
for the damper

2000. I charge it every year when I do a full service on it at the 300Lbs. May be different for different years...

ok so i asked at the dealership today and the mechanic said that it was 242psi...but i think he was generalizing for all ds650's and i figure it might be different for each year or something...

The 00'-01' has a 300 psi charge for the rear reservoir.

The 02'-03' has a 242psi charge for the rear reservoir.

The 04'-07' has a 300psi charge on the Front and 142psi for the rear.

This is per the factory service manual!
