Confidence will only come when your skill level improves with the equipment your are riding, and it's a bum on seat thing, each time you ride the bike you should experiment with it's capabilities without going beyond your comfort zone, remember the bike will most likely do more than you are capable of.

I could ride my SV650 faster than the current R6, but with practice and seat time the R6 will be far superior to the SV. So don't blame yourself for not getting the conidence straight away, it will take time, and when it hits you, it will feel like the bike is on rails.
