Getting a good feel for the bike now I logged over 3k on her....did some more hard runs at low altitude and have it pretty much figured out. Still...no matter how smooth I twist the throttle at sea level and want to max perform the bike, the front end comes up a bit in 1st as it hits the power band....not uncontrollable....just does a nice lift off, much like rotation of a jet on take off. I either ride it out, or if it keeps coming up, I feather it just a touch and the front goes down...only to rise up a bit in second, but no feathering required.

I've been too much of a wuss to hit it hard enough again. Hit the rev limiter 2 times trying. The key is high rpm, yes but you don't need to redline. I don't know what rpm it will come up for me but I'm not about to try to watch the tach while on one wheel.
