Front suspension?
#7
I found the suspension to be on the soft side. For a quick check put two zip ties on fork, put your setting back down to two lines showing (which I believe in normal) on level ground hold the front brake and compress the shock with your weight over the front end and see what the travel is measuring from the zip to the top of the shock. Maybe someone of similar weight can do the same to compare ( my bike is apart right now) At least you will be able to tell if there is binding in the triples or a fluid issue. I would try this before you bring it in to the dealer.
