Got it started up,

Long way to go yet but it gives you a great buzz.

That's one of the big milestones of a build. Well done, it's a great feeling.
One tip with a superbike engine (hondas anyhow) is give her plenty of abuse. Try not to start her and stop her before she warms up and/or you give her a good clean out (ie hard revving).
Starting her for friends to hear (for 5 mins gentle revving) doesn't seem to agree overly with my blade anyhow.
