A guy at the track told me to inflate my tires to 10 psi in the front and 8 in the rear because he thought i was going to bend a rim. I made it very clear that i was running my stocker tires (took off my mx tires until i get my a-arm/shock package cause i was bottoming). He said try it, that it also makes the landings better. He seemed very knowledgable(sp?); had a complete mx rappy. Anyway, I was trying it out and got to the biggest table and landed maybe a foot or two short of perfect. Nothing uncommon, except this time it bouced real hard and catapulted me off. Resulting in a broken Cuboie bone in my foot and not to mention all the other minor injuries and pain. Should of kept it at 4 psi all around. Any suggestions on what psi to put my tires at, when i do ride again? Thanks.

 

Bummer on your broken foot.....

I would kept the psi around 4-5 or so. 10 psi seem alot for mx. imo

I set my at 10 psi for desert racing condition.

Get better soon....

 

6 psi is my max.

Yikes, hope you heal up soon.

 

Ya for MX you want lower pressure cause it makes landings softer. It also helps in the traction department.

Hope you get to feeling better
