Default GSXR600 suspension setup guide

I'm changing my rear suspension on th GSXR600 I just bought cos the old one looks a little tatty and I got a second hand "as new" stock one for next to nothin. (Would have gone for ohlins if I could have afforded it)

I know I can physically change it but don't wanna mess with the setup without knowing what I'm doing and I don't know how the second hand one will be "as is" when I put it on my bike.

Is there any 'how to, and why' info on the net for suspension setup and should I attempt setting it up on my own or pay for a professional to do it? - I don't wanna loose it at the first bend I take.

Ta!

PS Chad...I don't think she will travel to B.C. just to see you although I will ask!
