Is the Kawai K1 II not the best for aftertouch (or pressure, whatever Kawai calls it)?

My K1 II is almost impossible to get the aftertouch to go, i hve to press so hard it's not 
even useable really. Is this common with the K1II not having great aftertouch or something 
else. 

I am on v1.0, would upgrading to 1.3 help this at all or replacing the aftertouch strip?

Hmmm, the K1mk1 I once had(and miss now!) could be
turned up really hot for aftertouch response, and
can't think of any reason for the mkII to be
otherwise. Make sure the link parameters in your
programs are turned up enough for an effect to be
heard. If it still takes meathooks, it must be the
strip or whatever circuit reads it.
