SG Pulling to the Left

I've had my 08 SG for about two months, from day one when I take my hands off the bars (coasting or in cruise control) the bike drifts hard to the left. I 've tried to redistribute weight in the saddle bags, but the drift is still there. Thoughts please.

It might be the way you sit on the bike. All my bikes drift right.

Do you have the kick stand in the up position when your riding because if it's down it would pull to the left ,do you see a trail of sparks in your left mirror?

Thanks...I really like the one about the kick stand. It is definately not posture related, I have to really lean to the right to neutralize the effect. I'll check out the fall away.
