Are you sure you know what you're doing on a bike?

I'm not sure what you're saying in the first paragraph.

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.
^That makes no sense. Are you trying to do a burnout or are you just reving the engine up and slipping the clutch until it completely engauges?

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?
Um... yeah. You can do the same thing in just about any vehicle with a manual transmission. The engine can't speed up and engine brake fast enough to match the ground speed so your rear wheel is spinning slower than the ground moving underneath it.
