Good point kvdv on checking the tire pressure. I've never felt slow speed steering heavy at all. In fact it seems to me that this was one area that most reviewers in the press agreed on. But we all react to bikes differently and however heavy the steering might have seemed to VLJ it did not appear to be enough so to squelch his interest in the bike.
The other thing that I would note is that this motorcycle strikes me as being pretty sensitive to fine chain adjustments (and I know that I"m not the only one here that's experienced this). Keeping the chain adjusted towards the low end of the recommended range makes a big difference in how it shifts.
