I drove it home from the shop last night. It is indeed night and day different - AceinSav you are correct that it is VERY input sensitive. After the ~12 mi. trip home I am really wanting to learn how to drive it @ fwy speed. The adjustable damper will be useful as I learn to use it. It was scary, but not like being only marginally in control at best.
Thanks to all who have shared your knowledge. More as I put miles on.

Hope you become accustomed to the new steering effort, James. If I recall correctly, we installed a spacer in the forks of our '82 883R to "help" the front suspension a little.
