Default how bad?

how bad is it to not let your bike do its full idle increase warmup thing before moving? I hate letting it rev up so high when i am leaving my girlfriends late at night, don't want to be rude in the neighorhood.

Same here...I don't move it until 100 and don't rev high until about 160.

I don't think it'll hurt. so long as you aren't going WOT and hitting high revs

I usually listen to the sound of my engine at high revs then when it has a more suttle calm sound and the needle is floating around 1rpm. I think this also happens around 100 hahaha

I only wait because it clunks into gear if I don't. It's also kind of sketchy when you let off the gas and your bike keeps going because it's on the choke.
