get a new clutch. ben bostrom, miguel duhamel, & jake zemke (all factory honda riders) complained about their holeshots on the 1000rr. they said they were really tough to launch. they'd spend a couple of days qualifying only to get beat to the 1st corner anyway. i don't know if that's the case w/stock cbr's too.
