I'm with chuckOT on this.
I think that people tend to rush things a little. The bike is new and your new to the bike. Give both parties a chance to settle in and take it from there.
My stock suspension seems to be better now than when the bike was new.
The brakes aren't grabby now and the front doesn't dive nearly as much.
The engine isn't sticky so it doesn't unsettle the bike if I get on or off the throttle a little.
It does feel like it wants to wander in a sweeper at speed but it is rock solid in rail to rail high 2nd-low 4th.
I never did get the pogo effect that so many people here did.
In a effort to cure the wanders I have made a point to keep my upper body real quite through the turns as the slightest pressure on the bars will upset things. I;m 6'2" and 275lb top heavy. When I start moving my upper body around things tend to happen and not always for the better.
It helps a lot but I can't help but think that a steering dampener would do a whole lot of good (at least for me). Force me to put a little more effort into the bars.
Hey fatRat, sorry about your suspension 'blem glad your ride was good.
You'll get it sorted.
If anyone is riding with a steering dampner I would like to hear your thoughts.
