Default Suspension ??

noticed on this bike that i have no chicken strips on a 190 rear, but like half an inch on the front, so i assume that i need to raise the forks a little in the front, BUT does it really matter that i'm not using all the front tire, it doesnt turn in very quick, but i like the way it handles,


also does anybody know how i should set up the front suspension for my weight? its set at stock now, but i weight 215 or so, everybody that i know says i need to stiffen it WAY up?

gonna put a zip tie around the front forks and see if i'm bottoming out the front forks, any other suggestions? oh and if i am bottoming them out, what do i need to adjust?
