pressures

Just bought an FE450 with Maxxis tyres. The pressures are 12psi fr and rear. Seems very sloppy on the road although only need to ride a short distance until off road (gentle green lanes only). Would appreciate any advice from more experienced riders. Thanks :unsure:

Been having some fun on my 650. I am back in love with it even after riding the new Bergs. I dropped the tire pressures because I was sliding around too much on my woods roads in the slop and that seemed to work great. However I went for a beach ride on Christmas day and things were great...
