I had s simular problem with my GSXR1100 a few years ago and going through a shit load of money I found that these things are very sensitive. I end up putting the bike on a jig to make sure the front & rear wheels were alligned and true, to our amazement the whole bike was out by 2-3mm doesn't seem like much but boy oh boy did it make a big difference. All we had to do was loosen off the main frame bolts and when we did this there was a very loud cracking sound from the bike. When the bloody japs put things together everything is done up very tight and taut which is a good thing but sometimes just having the bike fall of the side stand is enough to chuck things out of allignment(normally need something a little more serious than that though ). To make the bike better handling After that as I still had a minor issue with the wollowing at speed I put in a Ohlins rear shock, ohlins fork springs and revalved the front as well. This made a huge impact on the bike and would have to agree with Spamanglenn you will not regret putting in an Ohlins. I have always ran a matched set of tyres but different coumpounds normally soft on the front. Just some more feedback to go over.
