Your post brought a big smile to my face too!
Just wait till you do the following-
Ride to your favourite set of bends on a warm day very early a.m. and stop... wait until any cars have gone past you........ give them a few minutes to clear..........then go for it!....... there will be a couple of corners when you will get the gears / speed just right and feel the back end ''dig in '' and shove you to the back of the seat as you accelerate....... when you get to the other end turn round and do it again......and again....and again.
