It scared the sh*te out of me the first time I opened the throttle hard once I had done the intial running in.... Once you get used to it, its fine, but it will take some getting used to. Just treat it with some respect and build up the throttle openings gradually and you'll get on fine with. A fine bike, even if I do say so myself ![]()

It should ride the bumps better, mine definately does.
Oh and just wait till your restriction is off, and you've run it in, say hello to 10000rpm goodness ![]()

Nice, as fizz says take the throttle steady when your off your restricted, when i rode my dads zx6 i twisted the throttle like i was on my sv, qaurt turn and it was still quick, but i never used it to its full potential, best bit was the brakes tho which im sure you'll notice as well.
