New bike, new times, new problems...

Went to island yesterday on my new CBR1000rr. I only have jeans(need leather pants at 120mph or faster) so I had to cut every run short up until the last one.

Onto the problems...1st gear can't get much more than 3/4 throttle or it stands up from 7k-12k, also has the same problem in second gear. Also, on the one pass that i went WOT on the 1-2 shift the back tire got ZERO traction and the bike went sideways

The verdict? the bike is fast as ***** and i freaking love it!

I'll post the 1/8 times since that's all thats pertinent(minus the last pass)
