Don't know about advice..but what I said about a tuner being local has a LOT to do with that particular tuner. I don't know a lot of guys that are willing to drive 150 miles just to sort out a suspension.
'Local' probably saves on shipping $...and shipping a set of forks back and forth ain't cheep.
Aligning the front end costs a lot less. ..like..FREE!

I just had mine done I recommend getting new seals when they are done. float s like a butterfly over grape fruit size rocks and rocks on at 60 mph. lets say every day except today my first ride with the revalve I noticed my suspension doing something I didn't want it to , today I rode like a maniac never gave the suspension a thought it was doing what it was suppose to do.

Re: front sag
Having a spring rated for your weight for starters . . . on the stockers, preload could play a role, but the right spring is the real key.sluggo69 wrote:i have the rear sag set. how do you set the sag on the forks?
An easy way to check sag on forks: put a piece of duct tape on the brake cable with the top edge of the tape even with the bottom edge of the brake cable guide. Get on the bike in a "racing" posture, feet on the pegs - the BOTTOM edge of the duct tape should be between the top and bottom edge of the brake cable guide (roughly 2.5")

Like Jeb said, but if it falls short either way you may have to adjust the fork height in the TT's
