I scarred myself on an 01 F4i 600 when I first started riding last July. I was in a parking lot and opened the throttle a little faster than I had expected and gave myself a good little scare. I have done the exact same thing on my FZR and the bike barely lurched. I know that I now have a years worth of experience and I could probably handle it...but I like my "slow" little bike for now.
