Have you personally checked tire pressure, checked chain tension and/ or lubed the chain? Run some Seafoam through it? Wear a jacket where the collar doesn't flap? Does the roughness go away when you pull in the clutch? Accelerate? Downshift?
My advice would be see how it feels after 2000 miles at which point these engines are broken in and everything is seated properly. You should see an increase in gas mileage at that point as well.
If you get the opportuniy, try meeting up with a fellow forum member and see if you can switch bikes for a short ride so you can feel theirs and just importantly they can feel yours. It may be normal and just something you are not used to.
Diagnosing something like this over the internet can just make you go crazy as people suggest it could be one thing or another, and then all of a sudden you are worrying about all kinds of stuff, when there may not be anything wrong at all.
You are covered by a warranty for a year from purchase. I would suggest at this point, that you just ride it, and try not to obsess over every little thing.
