As for dive, I think a lot of it depends on what your previous bike was -- if you're stepping out of a GSXR or R6/R1, the kat is burdened by hefting an extra 100lbs of weight as a sports-tourer, but that extra weight also makes it more stable over uneven roads at speed. If you're coming out of a bike with a paralever or hossack front end, the dive is very difficult to handle, but after a while, you will get used to it. Are you bottoming out the forks on any of these dives?
Q: Where do you live? Fork oil, like brake oil, is prone to water retension to some degree from ambient humidity, and if the place that delivered your bike to you used oil from an open container in a high-humidity location, it might have been compromised.
Also - did you buy the bike new, or used? If used, how much did the previous owner weigh (give or take)?

Suspension? You can adjust it?
I have mine a bit stiffer cuz of my size. It could probably use a bit more tuning though. I will have to check out that web site and see what it says for fat mexicans.Kan-O-Gixxer!
