Get a gun and shoot that squirrel.

ok on the pressure
as a new rider, Iknow, Iknow I've read all the not a bike for the newbies... how long do you think I should wait untill I start adjusting the firmness, rebound etc of the suspension.  Should I just leave it alone and learn the bike the way it is then mess with it?  
Also how long does it usually take to warm up a tire??

If you do any agressive cornering you should have the suspension set-up for your weight.



A lot of factors on tire warmup;
1)air temp
2)road temp
3)type of tire
4)type of riding

But generally a couple miles for a street tire(more if you get cold winters), but its hard to give an exact #.

Should the suspension settings be done as soon as you get it from the dealer (0 miles) or should the bike be broken in a little before making adjustments?

welcome by the way. Someone else will have to answer your question as you can see I don't have the answer

Cold tires

Yep, prolly a cold tire and you need a bit more air pressure.

At your weight

RAISE the tire pressure to at least 38 psi and Yea, you were on cold tires ! Me, I would put the tires at 42 psi, but you can add a little, see how that does and just add more until it's comfortable

Displaced- WHEN you do get around to doing some adjustments (preload, compression, rebound) you'll get that the FINE tuning is air pressure.

Jinks is right though, guys of y'alls size need a stiffer spring. Put some air in it ride the shid out of it

In Florida, probably not necessary.

Unless you are going to trackdays.

When you start getting aggressive in the corners, that's when you should have your suspension set-up.

Its a new bike right?? Take it easy for a while...
