I just test rode the RT for about 200 miles, it's very fast I must say, when departing a little too quick it seems that the front wheel is spinning or the bike is lifting itself a little bit. is it normal?

I liked the bike

The RT has torque out the wahzoo. Wheelies are very easy if one is not careful. Try to keep it on the road Nick! ;)

I rode the LT up until about six months ago. I got a new RT. I like both bikes. And yes, the front gets light under hard acceleration. It is not a control issue, as the bike doesn't pull to either side. It's normal for the RT.
