Best idea is to take a day or so and read this board. Search on Jakobi for jetting and 45mm Marzocchi for your bang-for-the-buck suspension mods.

Welcome!

Set up spend a day doing the usual. Set the sag. Go over the ergos and set them up how you like it. Some people prefer to take the cross bar off those Renthal Twinwalls cause they're super stiff. The rear brake needs some attention to get it in the right place from new but if its a second hand bike odds are it'll already been done. Mix some fuel and take her for a ride! and then come back and give us a report! I'm sure you'll identify a few more things after a day in the saddle but you'll be grinning from ear to ear.. What bike are you coming off?

Congrats! Yep fix the rear brake height by cutting a small section off the rod, sort the jetting to your liking, set up the suspension and enjoy.

I did't like the heat of the big bike in the Alabama summer

It'll be a nice sea change. The ergos are very different to a ktm from what I've noticed. Some people like them, others not so much, and some just seem to be able to ride anything!

Here are a few set up hints from an Australian dealer: http://www.scottysdirtbikespares.com/gas-gas-set-up-tips/index.php

Enjoy!
