Just finally started to read this thread. I too experience this same rapid kick in the a$$
acceleration that you are describing.Wide open throttle into 2nd gear and then it hits a point where the bike just takes off. Hit 3rd gear at the right point and it takes off hard again. Mine has always done this.
I just wrote  it off as the engine revving up into its power band and is a normal characteristic.
My nephew's GSXR does the same thing, just more dramatic, and you better be hanging on when
it kicks in on that bike or your sliding off the back.

Ratman we have two, Ballamodha straight is 2miles long and mountain mile. No shortage of empty roads to test it out. It happened to me last night when I opened it up in 2nd gear and I thought then,I really need to get to the bottom of this very annoying fault.

 Do you actually have a stretch o straight road on the Ilse that lets you get to second gear? I need to look closely at a map of that place.....

I really will have to knuckle down and start looking for the fault,GB is sort of right since fitting the new seat I have sort of just taken it easy in second gear,as I just wanted to ride it. I will start looking soon I promise  ;)

That new seat probably straightened it out.....
