I too found the St top heavy particularly at v'low speed when doing u-turns etc but once on the move it rode like it was on rails....

Yes, the bike is kinda top heavy, especially with a full thank-o-gas. I have practiced slow speed turns quite a lot since I bought the bike, and have done a couple bike courses (MSF ERC, L.P. Total Control). I have learned the sweet spot of the bikes center of gravity, and now use that top-heaviness to toss it into corners or turns. It is much more enjoyable to let the bike (and gravity) to do all the hard work!
Congrats on your (soon to be) new ride! :-D
