Is this telling us that we North Americans should lose some weight? It is the same with dirt bikes we get from Japan, we always complain about the suspension being set up for light people,...hmmmm, more PT for us! The truth hurts...LOL

I need to have my bike brought back up to snuff when I get back from Afghanistan (oil change, etc...). Will the dealership be able to help me dial in the suspension as well?

The rear, yes, correct spring preload and rebound accordingly (10 min job) - the front can't be adjusted, but since you're debt free there are all kinds of upgrades you can do waytogo

Before spending money on upgrades, make up your mind if it's necessary and worth it (riding experience first)
