Besides more than a bit of sway on the highway, I also get a bit of a 'tipping' sensation on uneven roads (especially where the right shoulder dips down a few inches). Now, granted, I am 260 lbs and have an intense sensitivity to 'level', but even still... the bike feels like it's 'giving' too much. I'm not talking about g force in a turn, this is more about 'crowned' or tilted roadways & changes in angle. I think stiffer shocks would help minimize that tipping sensation. I have my stock shocks all the way up right now and have been playing with the rear suspension settings to find a better feel. Also adjust my tire pressure to 18. Just looking for more stability and less sway.
I'm thinking about ordering some Elka shocks and having my dealer install them (I am close to learning which end of the screw driver to hold!)
