Used the Ninja for the first commute to work today, 56 mile round trip, mostly A roads, 50-60 mph single carriageway with a bit of 30mph urban either end.

It starts fine from cold and fast idles about 2k rpm, when I pull away, after a couple hundred yards or so the fast idle rose to over 4k and started to push the bike on when slowing for a junction, idle settled down to normal when warmed up. Is this normal?

Temp gauge only just crept above the C even after 28 miles, was only 2 degree ambient though. Normal?

Weird buzzy noise when I opened it up a bit, reading a lot about clutch lever vibration?

Other observations; fueled it back up first thing this morning since I collected it from the dealer, calculated 65mpg (English gallons).
Tacho bulb has blown.
Nearly fell off in the car park at work on a sheet of ice.
Need to adjust my riding style, used to the R1 having immense grunt from 3000rpm, the Ninja is my like RGV and thrives on revs.
It's also now plastered in road dirt after one day, ah well, an excuse to clean it.
