Hi everyone, I was wondering if any one can give me any advice on learning how to handle my sv650 better.

I have been riding all of 7 days, so maybe about 30 hours of riding and I'm feel really good about how its going apart from a few issues.
This is my first big bike since passing a few months ago so I have had no experience on bikes apart from the direct access and my little sv. I am a car driver and very confident and aware so my problems do not lie there.

My problems is with my clutch control on roundabouts, esp if they are bumpy. My hand seems knock the throttle open sometimes and scaring me silly and makes me look like a numpty if I get pulled forward because of the jolting. Darn rutts and holes!
I try to be light with my wrist action (oo, err) and try to not panic and shut off the throttle too quick as that seems to throw me some times too.

I have talked to my OH and he says that it will get easier in time. I do get loads of advice but I thought maybe you guys could offer some advice too.

Other than that I am having so much fun with this little bike. So easy to handle, having fun leaning it over on the twisties and escaping the line of cars at a red light.

Hope you can help.
