mxaniac:
I would follow the gearing and tire suggestions then focus on learning better throttle control.  If that doesn't get you where yo uneed to be then consider a flywheel weight.

Dutch-K5 Fan:
Do you  have 450 or 250 frame? I have a 250 frame, would like to have 450 swingarm for some more leght. I use Pirelli 110/90/19 mt32, because of the fourstrokes the tires got wider. If I remember correct the k5 swingarm isn't longer than a 450.
I use stock gearing  and ride third gear in corners, even in a tight one.

Podium Werx:
My frame is a 250 but also building a 450 frame but the swing arms are the same thought it mite be longer

SS109:
Work on your clutch technique. That is the best way to keep your front end down and to maintain traction in turns.
