The air pressure will be a personal thing. It will be different for everyone as there are many variables. You will need to experiment to find one you like. Try starting out at the testing pressure of 20lb psi. Then try increasing a little maybe 5-10lb at a time and see how it feels. If the ride gets too stiff, just back it off. If it's not "plushy" enough, add some more.

Make sure though to find out the max pressure for your particular shocks because you don't want to go over and blow the seals. Hopefully someone with that knowledge will be along shortly.

Besides the shocks, another thing that really affects the quality of the ride is the tire pressure. It is common for those to be overfilled especially the trike rear tires. Many think they need to be aired up quite a bit. But remember, those are car tires and rates to handle the weight of automobiles. Trikes weigh significantly less so do not require the same pressure as if the tires were mounted to a car.
