Congrats on the new bike.

Some day I might have that experience, but it will take a while.

Re: just rode home on the 07 fireblade

Hard accel + hard deacell is what you need IMO - don't take it to the red line just yet.

Once she is fully run in, you'll be lifting just by rolling on the throttle.

Looks sweet

Ride Safe
