Alright Mate!
Nice one!
The old Aprilias are the DB's. I found that with mine I needed to up the compression on front and rear. I found that the bike was wallowing a little on the power when coming out of bends. The Ohlins is very responsive to change, and I found that by upping the compression by two clicks on both the rear shock and the forks, that it stopped shaking its head. 
it'll still move more than the Gixer did, but this is down to the wheelbase and loads of torque more than anything else. You'll find that it might feign a tankslapper with regularity, but it never really gets out of hand. It's all part of the fun mate!
BTW, Axo Aprilia leathers and a new lid ............ You Tart! LOL
