I've had my bike for a few hundred miles now (07 w/ Ti Akra, Anth of course) and I'm finding it very difficult to resist twisting the grip! I find this bike really loves speeds of 80-90mph. A little faster than the posted speed limits here in South Florida. The front end seems to be getting a little lighter with more miles on it also.

I do have a couple questions tho. Is it me or is the ability to raise the front wheel under power dependent more on traction? It seems that when the tyres are hot off the highway and I roll it on hard, the front is coming up but under City cruising, the tyre spins instead. I'm not talking cold tyres now but my other bikes were more predictable.

Also, what do you use to get all the burnt rubber off the pipes and underside of the fender. Way to easy to do burn outs!!!

I've got Michelin Power 1 2CT's, my bro in law used @ the track. I tried them at 34 psi f/r and it felt like I was riding through peanut butter. pumped them up to 36-40 f/r & it felt MUCH better. JMO
