[ST] First gear



No, not the clothing.  Is it my imagination or does the ST have an
incredibly tall first gear?  My last bike (Katana 1100) didn't have an
exceptionally short first gear but the ST seems huge by comparison.  Seems
like I'm having to keep the revs up more than I'm used to on a normal start
or it will almost start to lug.  Is this a triple phenomenon or just an
intentional design.  BTW, I'm not complaining - I'd rather have a longer
first gear than one that's just for decoration.
