[QUOTE="SpDyKen, post: 1343736, member: 60208"] I alter my tire pressure based on conditions. I would only run my tire pressure as high as 15 psi. in rocky, or high-speed hard-pack conditions. It is my [I]perception[/I] that [I]many[/I] off-road racers do the same. I think pro MXer's do, also, but rely on the tire mfgrs. to provide them the proper pressures for each track & conditions. As a former road racer, I varied tire pressure to affect traction and wear, all of the time, but used the tire maker's recommendations to start. I'm pretty sure that that dirt-trackers alter their pressures, as well. I can tell the difference in 1 to 2 psi., when I am riding. Different tire & tube combinations require different pressures, also, IMHO. Your suspension sag greatly impacts your bike's steering. This is why the factory teams spend so much time testing. There are many, many, variables that need to be tested, in conjunction with each other. :nod: [/QUOTE]
