For road use - any point?
I've got one fitted on a new bike and I also fitted one on my gen 1 tbh I've had em on just about every bike so I highly rate them, you can either pin the throttle and shift up or block shift, my latest mule with the full akro sounds awesome when it pops via changing with the shifter.Anyone whom states they replicate the same without the use of the clutch by using the throttle, is by no way replicating the same a shifter kills the ignition/fueling four times faster than a blink of the eye, you try and do that, impossible. I love the sound, shifting thro the Gears in the tunnels in Europe the sound is priceless, and when I overtake snick snick I'm gone.
Highly rated by me too. Been on my FZ1 7 years now & there's one on my soon to be s1000r. Full throttle upshifts are great. No needing to shutoff to unload the gearbox, just open that throttle & hang on.The best mod for fun factor ever. Fact!

You want to sell your quickshifter now your trading up to a Beemer Dek?BBB, I haven't seen them for under €300 (new), its an expensive add on.
It uses the PC111 & Ignition module as well Matt. You have the reflash only I believe. There may be a way to use the DJ quickshifter as a standalone device. I'll have a look at the wiring diagram and see if it's possible to interrupt the ignition circuit by a single wire & run it in series.Dek

Oh wait a minute Matt, Dek! Do they go with carburetted bikes rather than FI bikes?Sorry, I know that makes me sound like a complete divot, but that's only cos I am!

But then again, I don't treat the road like Cadwell Park, so excuse me for failing to see the point of them.
There nowt to be excused about fella there is no point to them until you've tried one, and you don't need to ride like ya pants on fire to benefit the use of one, different strokes for different folks
If you block shifted down with a quick shifter wouldn't that then require a slipper clutch?Which my model doesn't have.

I guess you are referring to how when people usually block downshift, they keep the clutch in. With a quick shifter I would imagine it would be letting the clutch out on every changeBesides this is usually discouraged (handbags at the ready) as any gear change can cause the gear teeth to misalign which is far more likely to happen the more gears you shift at once.
