It's funny that you mention that. This last summer, when working on my new 4 mile personal super tight woods trail, I noticed that when I was pushing the bike (manually), it doesn't turn worth a damn. (Just as you reported)
Under it's own power, this bike will cut the tight trees better than my wife's little TTR125LE. (I rode them both, back to back, on consecutive laps of the trail.) It rocks in the tight woods.
I then got to looking at it, compared to my '99 200, my 2004 300, and my son Gabe's '00 250. The forks on the 2011 seem to be at a lot different angle than the older Gassers; the rake is less steep, giving it the longer foot powered turning radius.
Under power, though... well watch this video of my son Joshua riding it through some very tight parts of my new trail (Mom's Trail).

note: It was only his second time through the trail and didn't always follow the exact line
I hope that you are still enjoying your GasGas.
Good Riding,
