A lot of it may be body position, and a lot of it may be in your head. Of course, you want the tire to be at the proper pressure and you want it warmed up as well. Cold tires will certainly slip. Also, applying throttle at the proper point and of the proper amount is key to keeping your bike stuck to the pavement. All of those items are pretty much, "learn as you go" type items. However, I would say err on the side of caution as to "how much" throttle to apply with a 1000 because too much, too fast can be REALLY bad. Start slow and work your way up to see what works best. What kind of Bridgestones do you have? I have a Bridgestone Battlax on my Kat 600 and I have no problems dragging knees or bike parts as well. That tire stuck to the track without a problem. And as N4S mentioned, there are a lot of good books. Check out the "leaning tutorial" thread for recommendations on books.
