    Read your operator's guide; it's in it.

    otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

    Since the sticker next to the valve recommends that you not exceed 10 psi OVER the recommended chart and the pressure for 250 lb driver and 250 lb passenger is 85 PSI, I would say 95-100 psi....I usually try for 50 psi 1 up....

    Since the RT Limited's all have an automatic system to keep the pressure adjusted, I don't believe that chart is in the owners manuals for those models.

    AND....that valve is there mostly just for checking to see that the automatic system is working.
    If you manually add or remove pressure, the system will go back to what it wants to be.
