Sort of like ABS, but less frequent. For the burnouts, I'm literally as far forward as I can get with my feet still being on the pegs. I know feet on the pegs isn't a requirement, but that gives you an idea of my position. What do you mean one motion? Like dumping the clutch and applying the front brake a little? Or is it more letting out than dumping? thanks for the help!

Sounds like you need to start by addressing your suspension set up, atleast make sure its not full hard... That could cause tire skid... Higher air pressure in the rear will be easier to make It break loose... I always run atleast 30 psi in both my tires but try to keep them between 33-36 psi most of the time. If its a brand new pilot power on the front and its skidding then its in your suspension setup or technique.. hard to tell with out seeing it tho
