I had one like that on the DR just outside of London a month or so ago off a set of traffic lights. My acceleration was definitely sharp, but I didn’t realise it had lifted in second/third until I began leaning into the turn and felt a wiggle as it hit the ground again.
Found a stretch of road to practice it yet?

haha first unintentional power wheelie is always interesting. With larger bikes its quite subtle as they start lifting, never ridden anything modern and powerful, guess they have an anti wheelie function, or at least it keeps front from coming way up.

Got the front up today, rolling onto WOT in 2nd. Maybe not that surprising on a litre bike but I wasn’t quite expecting it as the initial acceleration wasn’t harsh, it just gently raised up as the CHANGE GEAR light flashed wildly at me.
Luckily the electronics are smarter than me and it held it there, probably less than a foot off the ground but it felt high!
