factory PSI

Mine was at zero from the factory.
A week later, it was zero again. Been fine ever since, I'm guessing something wasn't seal properly at first.
I usually run it around 30-35 psi

I find that statement hard to believe and without seeing the design specs or other manufacturers literature to prove otherwise, I don't believe it.
If this were the case you'd constantly be adding air to the shocks. And if you are constanly adding air, then you have a leak somewhere in the system.
I went on a 9,000 mile ride this summer and set the shock pressure at 20psi before I left. A month later when I returned home, I checked the shock pressure, and it was exactly 20psi.
Maybe I didn't hit any bumps???

20 is a LITTLE light for the new frame. Should be around 30 or so.

Could you substantiate that statement? Wear did you get that information?

Amazing, eh? I guess I never hit bumps either! I've not lost a single pound of air pressure in my last two bikes, that's four riding seasons now. Some dealer probably told him that and he believed it.

Bingo - look in manual for Rear Suspension Recommended Air Pressure Table (my 09 Touring manual is page #64). Set air according to weight & dial-in when you ride. Need to get hand air pump from HD to check & adjust.
