My 05 does it as well. MOCO says it's normal.

Have an Ultra, same frame tho. Mine does the same thing. I would guess it's the weight and rotating mass of the clutch and engine gear.

Good Guess, It's the primary assembly, do a 10 lb counter in the right bag...

Mine did the same thing until I loosened up the clutch cable clamp on the h/l nacelle and repositioned it so the cable slides throught it smoothly, I think it was binding the cable slightly and causing the bike to "steer" itself.
