If the Spyder DPS is suppose to help when at cruising speed then I think I may have a problem with it too. If so, I would welcome having it fixed because I would like to have a little more steering assist too. Thoughts, Comments.....?
Same for me.

Bottom line, OP, is that the Spyder is always going to require more steering effort than any two-wheeler. I'll get flamed here, but I still think that the RSS is designed for an aggressive seating position wherein your body weight is concentrated more on the handlebars. Switching to a more upright position may be more comfortable but that comfort comes at the price of decreased leverage on the handlebars. Hence my suggestion to try the original handlebars and see if that helps.
HOLY MOLY!!!!! You and I agree on something!!
