flooding out?

Just bought a 2007 R1 and before reading the thread on bad acceleration I was getting used to the bike and noticed that when I pulled out of a parking lot and rolled on the throttle hard the bike would almost die out before taking off. Example: lugging out at around 2 to 3 grand and rolling on the throttle hard will almost pull you over the handle bars it cuts out so bad. Is this realated to the thread? Or can I just get that tuned out? And I don't hang out at 2 to 3 grand often but it is just aggravating thinking something might be wrong with a new bike. Have called the dealer but no help there.
