You need to find someone who will make an appointment with you there and sitting on the bike and not making guesses at your weight.

If you do trackdays, sometimes they have people there that will tune your suspension. STT had this last week

There's a suspension co that comes out to Jennings GP that everyone around here raves about. I think that'd be a good bet.

Yes that is where you want to go. GMD Computrack in Bellingham.

Talk to Peter Kates, he is a suspension fiend and has been in the business for a long time. Tell him I sent you, he may remember me. He was telling us the other day on a local forum about how he worked on some of the Britten V1000's... dude knows his shit.

Anyways, you have two options.
1. Go to a Tony's Track Day and Peter will be there and walks around setting people's shit up for free. A lot of his employees ride and go to those TDs too and might help you if you befriend them.
2. Go to his shop and he will probably do it free or for fairly cheap.
