How Do from Stoke

How do all,
just bought myself an 09 model 21,000 mile beige/sand/brown depending upon your mood...been riding it a week now and have some questions, please point me in the right direction for answers.
1. Its got standard exhaust but pops and crackles on the overrun, is this normal?
2. The steering is giving me an odd sensation, cruising at normal speeds no problems, when braking for a slow turn( i.e at junctions) for a slight instance the steering doesn't feel if it will move, then feels like the bike wants to fall in the corner. Can't see a noticeable notch in the steering, could this just be tyre pressure or is it just a characteristic of the bike. Head bearing instantly spring to mind.
FYI bought the bike from Suttons motorcycles in Birmingham, they said they do a MOT type test/check on all bikes sold.
Many Thanks

Dev vers
