    I'm about to install my 3rd General G-Max! It isn't a run-flat! As such, I have my best handling with the tire set at 43psi. I do all "solo riding" and tip the scales at 255 lbs. The higher pressure eliminates/minimizes "squirm"!

    What pressure would you recommend to start out at with the Michelin?

    Mileage now getting close to 2k and still at 42 pounds. Results so good I see no reason to even try increasing or reducing the numbers.
