What PSI??

That & how you ride are the biggest things that will determine how often.

What are you riding & what kinda riding do you do?

Same setup, high elevation ONLY (aside from a season on the HC circuit) we changed the reeds at 1300 miles & they were perfect. Got some very small scuffing on the pistons, no big deal, and skirts look great.

We run 2-2.5 gal of 112 with 91 non ethanol & run around 9-11 lbs with a few pulls a day at 14+ most days. Riding between 10,500 & 13k. Honestly if the lowest you can go is 6 lbs, I would think that the low alt. riding would be requiring a quicker rebuild cycle than we are though.
