    A few questions

    Im still feeling my bike out which is a stock 1000rr and would like some helpful imput havent ridden in about 10 years and i did take a MSF course but a 200cc bike in a small area is nothing like my bike on the street

    1) maybe it just the way i drive a car, i do alot of scca and road rally runs that i take turns i guess aggressively example on a 45mph zone i take it going40 to 45 but on my bike i find my self turning at 20 is that slow

    2) starting from from a stop easing off the cluch i feel like im crawling then quickly speeding to make up for it causeing a lil jumpyness when i lay off the throttle and notice i start moving at like 2000rpm

    3) yes i read some of the other post but most of them were on 600cc where are most of the 1000cc cruising at in the rpm and gear someone told me to ride in the power band about 7000rpm which means im in 3rd gear on i25 going 75 dosent that just kill the gas mileage

    Thanks in advance for the imput hoping i can come to a noob ride and get some pointers i do have about 500 miles on my bike and starting to get in to the flow just rather not have bad habits to break
