1098 jumping out if gear under acceleration?

Just needing some advice from anyone with a similar problem.

My 2008 1098 is amazing but when I want to have a play and accelerate sharply the bike jumps out of gear, usually in 2nd and 3rd gear and always in the high revs around and above 8k rpm. Starting to concern me that its maybe not me that's not quite knocking the gear lever enough and that the gearbox might have an issue?

Think I've got about 2 weeks before my warranty expires so wondering if its a job for the dealer or a poorly adjusted gear selector?

Thanks in advance. Dean
