how bad is it for my tranny to be dumping the clutch at WOT? I will rev up to about 10 - left the clutch engage and it slaps in at 12. all the way up to about 55mph so fastest acceleration. Now i do this maybe once a day not all day long. Just wondering if a really NEED to let off that gas some while the clutch is held in.

ALSO sometimes when i down shift to hard for slowing down the back wheel locks ups for just a second, I would expect that on a dirt bike but not a street bike, any suggestion?
