tire pressure?

I know the owners manual says 29psi. I would like to know what everyone uses when climbing stairs and doing jump.. I currently have mine set to 30psi front and back.

I run mine at 18 front and 15 back with the deathwings for gravel roads and around town, fell fine to me, No jumps though.

WR250X?

When I owned mine, I was using (I forgot the exact figure) somewhere around 23psi.

I use factory pressures on the street and 18 front, 10 rear on dirt. I've done a lot of dirt riding at 18/10. I have been considering dropping the front a bit. I do use a rim lock in the rear and most of my riding is in sand/dirt in the NJ pine barrens. Though I've done my share of NE and Central PA rocks and dirt at 18/10.

sorry, I own a Wr250x. I feel like anything below 20psi is really low lol. Then again the bike I come from is a sport bike

For street use, definitely.  For dirt low tire pressure is common and often a good idea. For street use I'd stick with manufacturer recommendations. In very few cases tire manufacturers will recommend different pressure for track use. My track days are behind me though so I'm not the right one to comment on that.

It's still good for me to know since I plan on going off road with my bike.

I typically run around 26 psi front and rear.
