if you look around there are many threads about this "problem." all you have to do is get used to it, you will realize that having a long first gear is actually nice. just get some seat time in:)

I would get a 13 tooth front sprocket. It helps out especially with stock tires. You can get sprocket from CRF450 dirt bike that is 13 tooth. If running 18 inch rears, may not need.
