I have searched, but do not see the answer to my question in previous threads…

I have been riding Adventure bikes for the last 20 years. Tyre pressure has always been about 2.3 bar front and 2.8 at the back.

On my dirt bikes I have been running about 2 bar front and back. I recently saw a thread in a USA based enduro group where the discussion was tyre pressures and the guys all seemed to run between 12 and 20 psi… or 0.8 to 1.4 bars. With the 20psi regarded as very high by some. However, this looks very low to me. Maybe for loose sand yes.

What pressures would you recommend on a g450x with Dunlop D606 tyres? Normal riding would be Jeep tracks that can be rocky.
