when i first got mine i could barely get first. my recomendation is to drop 1 tooth in the front. you dont end up losing hardly any top end and mine powers up in second as long as i preload the shocks andclutchesup in third on front pegs, fourth on back pegs

I can get second up with ease.

520 conversion

Slip clutch, pick up to 8-10k and drop it and I'm up with ease

I'm with you zoogooz! I've never droppedit yet and it would kill me to drop it playing around.
What's the easiest technique for doing a wheelie and will the F2 do a "power wheelie" just accelerating hard in second?

I bought a dirtbike for wheelies. 98 rm125, has more nuts than the cbr by a long shot. still scares the hell out of me. Far safer for riding out wheelies and not illegal. I have no desire to try anything like that on my cbr. drop it once and it pretty much destroys the value of it. I need that to trade up to a newer bike eventually!!
