My take off's are really giving me problems. When I launch hard I'm trying to get
my feet on the pegs, the front is coming up, and by that time I'm red lining.
I see guys with stock bikes launch hard and keep the front down all the time.
Whats the secret? Besides more track time.

The deal is to finesse the clutch feed. There is no pop the clutch like a car. This is cable feed but it is now a liquid feed. Yes, location, location, wait a minute. Yes, practice, practice, practice. Find a remote area. Coast real slow as if you will almost need to drop your feet you are moving so slow.
Then, tuck, hammer the clutch all feed it out. Do that for awhile until you can stop and try it. You don't want to be spoiled with feet up. You'll need your legs as rudders, You'll whack the throttle, it moves the front end, you get the gist of correcting, remain stable and all thatrick.
Definitely, without a doubt, 'The leave is an art.' Good luck. The cutting of the light fandango. More art. Practice says it all.
