cuz yout shit is pumped up to much, lol. 22-24. You got one of my customer all fucked up, tellin him to pump up to 35. I told him six months ago to drop the pressure and a few other tips. he hit me up last week tellin me he still cant do circles from any position. I was shocked cuz he is riding the easiest bike to circle on the planet, the 250x. I asked him his tire pressure, he tells me 35 cuz he was listning to you, I bitch at him, tell him to drop it to 22, then he hit me up a day later tellin me he cut more circles than ever in his life an apologized for doubting, LOL. no one at the track runs more than 24, and either should you. drop it to 20 and that new tire will fall right into the circle, once its broke in take it back up. I rock 22 and drift the piss out of my bike, rail the fuck out of corners, and still bust 360 spins on a dime.

\r\n \r\n hahaha, ill give it a try just for you man. even when i drop to 30psi for the streets its really wobbly cuz i can feel the tire flexing so much so it doesnt feel at all comfortable to me to ride like that. i can watch your vids and see your tire doing the same thing as your trying to keep it goin straight. we\'ll see what happens tho, just seems real odd to me cuz noone runs low pressure like that for big bikes, most lot guys run 35-45 easy. i used to run low 20s on streets with the big bike to stay straight but had a harder time steering corners or keeping it on the road at times compared to when i started running in the 30s i could steer corners all day easy\r\n

supmoto runs same tires, but way lighter, no one runs that high pressure. bikes handle like garbage after 24. do it!! circle it!! film it!! post it!\r\n

\r\n \r\n mine handles like a champ, last year i was killing everything running 35-40 all the time, never in my life have i learned so much in one short season of riding. dropped it to 23psi this morning before i left for work, on my way home ill hit up a few lots and see what happens. hoping to be extremely surprised and it work well but im doubtful to say the least\r\n

damn ,35-40 my bikes will loose traction, slide out , and end up hittin another vehicle. I don\'t know how you hang a turn, or a wide circle pumped up that high. crazy. anything over 25 and my bikes loose traction. tuck the front wheel hangin a turn in the city and im going to the hospital.\r\n

\r\n \r\n i run like 28-30 in the front, but i think the exact same way you are about what i run, i dont how you would run wide fast circles and control it cuz the tire has to be flexing over real bad and id think it could even scrap the rim and tear the shit out of the tire in a hurry. i tried mine in a few lots on way home with 23 in the tire and its deff not enough, i feel every move and flexing it does on streets and in circles. i did feel comfortable in circles and moving around doin combos but its all around a bit to soft for me, doesnt drift for shit and even when i can get it to drift its shredding the tire like ive never seen before. i think i got the sides broke in good now from running it low and drifting a bit so it should be good to go, i think ill go up little by little and probly stay around 30psi. but im gettin all my combos back and actually did a couple sitdown O\'s which im not that good at anyways, and nailed a real nice n fast death spin. but i only rode for like a half hour or so.

\r\n \r\n thats your personal skills not your tire. my opinion if you need to run super low pressure on any bike your doing it to make up for your abilities of being able to manuver and control the bike. anything under 30 feels like dogshit on my bike\r\n
