Joe,
I am a bigger lump @ 245lbs 6'7". I set my front pre-load to second from tightest and tightened up the rear to about the 1/4 from full compression. I have not rode it yet with these settings. Just my starting point, stock was way to light for me.
I would bet some twidget can tell us the exact spec. for suspension sag in inches on this bike but I am not the guy. I get a kick out of dealers lack of service. You buy a 6 grand atv and they say have a nice day. I have been racing mountain bikes for years and even with my first 1200 bike they spent over an hour dialing it in for me. Much better service then you get from the 20 something tattoos from head to toe kid selling dirtbikes.
