Emergency stops are easily done, but is there a safe gear or speed that I can fully throttle my Busa in (in a straight line), that won't leave me wheeling or sitting on the tarmac? Having a 250 before this, I dare not do it without advice as I'm already hanging on at quarter throttle (2nd gear), lol.

two days after i bought my gen 1 , i took it to a drag strip. I suggust you do the same, its a safely controlled environment , don't worry about the quarter mile times just enjoy the acceleration the busa has to offer. You'll think your sitting on a rocket the first few times. When you go past the quater mile clock start your decent. For $50 you'll be grinning for a week and a bonus no possibility of being booked and ambo's on site if you f*** it up.

I came from a beemer 1200rt (same as cops ride) to a busa and to this day 5 years later are still amazed at how every time I go for a ride on the Busa it still inspires you and not to mention scares the bejesus out of you sometimes.
As others have said..gently gently smooth throttle control and smooth weight transfer are the go, also get the body set up on the bike before you enter the corner so no need to sqirm around on bike mid corner.
All basic stuff I know but its easy to forget this stuff when on a new bike especially the busa.
You will love the bike as many others do..respect of the bike will keep you outa trouble.

Regards,
