I was very good on a bmx bike when I was a kid if that has anything to do it. Turns are hard at first, feels like the bike wants to fold in on you. I also didn't go past 2nd gear and about 6k rpms.

But oh man was it the greatest experience I've ever had.

A buddy has a striaght turndown right under the peg on his ~05 R1... its actually reasonably quiet!

Man, I'd hate to ride that ZX-10R every day, but I'd love to have one anyway!

I love jumping on the bike, starting it and just cruising off. No boost gauge to watch until the car warms up etc...

One thing I really like about riding the bike is the clutchless shifting. Just whack the throttle open, lift your toe up, and the bike shifts into the next gear. Real quick!

Nothing wrong with a little powershift now and then, but if you do it alot I'd highly recommend an ignition interrupt/powershifter if you do it that often
