sps question...???

Ok - riden bike a couple of times and OMG its like a rocket!! and the handling...makes the 748 feel slow and twitchy

BUT...can't ride on a neutral throttle, ie smooth around a roundabout/corner/thru town/in traffic. It spits and judders unless I am either deccelarating or accelerating. No flat spots at all (and did I mention it pulls like a train) from less than 4k right thru, just smooth. It will cruise at 80 ok, but not much less!

Shop are doing all they can for me - tried different chips, (sp little better but lose the massive rush when the power comes in) fully set up to stop any flat spots etc, and I must admit if I had ridden before I probably would not have bought it ....but, is this normal for 916sps to behave like this? They have offered a half/half deal on an fim with full set up, will this cure it? (any experiences out there??) HELP..desperately want this bike but if it remains unridable for me under 80, may have to go...

ps - trust the garage when they say they have checked all the injectors, throttle etc and it is 'normal' but want second (or more) opinion
