I have to agree...besides I've never actually SEEN anything on a tire. They're just really,really smooth at first...

Yeah, just take it easy for the first 50 miles or so and you'll be fine. Be smooth, and most importantly be progressive in your lean, don't go for full on cranked over cornering, slowly increase lean angle to slowly scrub off small portions of the release agent.
