What Metzler is telling you is the maximum tire pressure for rating purposes. You should never have a large enough load to need that much carrying capacity. If you do, you are probably far beyond the bike's carrying capacity. Stick with bike's specifications. If you weigh between 150# and 250# consider somewhere between the solo and 2 up pressures on the bike. I'm currently heavier than that so I qualify for 2up spec's all by myself.
