Around 8K RPM in first, release throttle half a second quickly and WOT (this compress suspension and rebound when apply gas on) with your weight in rear much as you can. You can also do off-on-off and WOT. I'm 5'7 and 150lbs, don't know if it helps.
Got front 525 15T from:
Standard final transmission (pitch 525) for Yamaha FZ8 / Fazer 8 / ABS / WGP 50th Anniversary 2010 - 2013 (made by Afam - Belgium / Japan)
They have rear 525 48T too.
But shipping is very, very slow; almost 2 months.
Now, the bike is always in a sweet spot with -1/0...
Sorry for the misunderstanding about the driving license.
I don't know about the procedure in States, but in Quebec, we must pass theoretical and practical exams for each. So, we can only drive cars or only drive motorcycles if we don't pass the exams for the other category of driving license...
I still consider me as a new rider, bought my Fazer8 (at 30 yo) a month after got my driving license last year and can't use the bike to its limit after 11 000km...
