man, it's a big step up from a scooter. i kept stalling at first but i had my friend, who is a WERA racer and student at GSU, help me get the basics down. i have turning and cornering down from riding my scooter, but shifting was kind of hard. i went to the football stadium's parking lot across the street and did about twenty loops around it (it was totally empty). i learned how to keep it above 2.5K to keep it from stalling. i can't wait to go on a group ride.

when i'm letting the clutch slip out while stopped in first, i keep it around 3k, but it keeps stalling. it's loud as hell around 5k, so i'm scared to let the clutch go in first there.
