Yep exactly the same for me on my 2011 on stock D220's. I wonder if screwing down the front shocks to max will help. I'm 6' and 14stone. Standard tyre pressure. I just assumed this was the situation with the SV. My other bike, DL650 has slightly wider front strips. I also wonder if riding position affects this - I am usually hard against the tank.
