SECOND!!

What ever bike you ride, It will only go as fast as your right hand lets it!
Be smooth!
This is my first big bike, so dont really have anything much to compare it to.
Other than shop bikes. HeHe

I find I used to shit myself, but just practised bringing it up smoothly and LOWERING it just as smoothly!
Got higher and higher the more confedent I got, then it just clicked.
Im still learning, but its getting easier everytime!

Or you could get hold of a MXer or trail bike, find a nice soft paddock and practice getting the feel for how high to go. And you have to go too far once or twice to know. (Hence the soft paddock requirement)

BLOODY GOOD IDEA!
But where on earth would we find a paddock in NZ!!?

Take the rear guard off, so if you do go over, It doesnt break.
