New gixxer pulls when turning... wtf??

Just got the gixxer today. If anybody has heard of "stuntinfoolz" I bought it off brandon. Good guy, gave me a good deal. But when I got it off the truck and went to ride I took my first turn, leaned into it and the handlebars became possesed! They turned into the turn as if it were a car! They seem drawn towards little grooves in the road and everything. Is it just lower tire pressure or is somethin bent? I'm gonna go try to pump the tires up and see if that helps. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

Tire is def in rough condition. But I threw some air in it and that helped a ton. Got some damn good fottage... of other people rockin my bike haha. But let me tell you... Wangsta got block!! and Rodger (speedkills) keep killin those standups man... they're gettin longer every time! Hopefully I"ll get used to that bike soon... as of now.. it's just pathetic.
