Hi Steve. Lean forward, use the clutch and get used to the power. Try some launches just get used to it. I've ridden fast road bikes all my life and my Beta 250 still catches me out because the bike weighs the same as me! Practice small throttle control. Ween yourself onto the power. Hope this helps. Giles Also, try letting off the clutch after you dump the power to feed it in more slowly until you get used to it.
