Suspension settings

I have 09 850 XP. Just wondering if anyone has one and where they have their suspension set on? I like a softer ride and I have it on the third setting. How about the tire pressure?

Before i switched to Elka's I ran the 3rd setting all the way around with 6 psi in the rear and 8 psi in the front.

I can't wait to get some new rims and tires next year though. These stock tires suck!

If you want soft go to the lowest setting.

I also like the softer ride but along with that comes with the front end diving while cornering so i have mine about in the middle, still testing.
I run 5 psi in the rear and 6 in the front, the lower tire pressure in the rear=better traction. Tire pressure depends on the type of riding you do also, going fast over rocky trails you'll want more pressure so you don't blow out a side wall or crack a rim, where as mud or snow you'll want a lower pressure.
Hope this helps
