Hi guys,
Just a quick question, I've heard conflicting advise regarding up shifting, the main difference in the shifts being with or without clutch. I've been trying with clutch, which is fine when riding sedately but try and do it when going quick and the engine revs as I can't shut the throttle quick enough...
Without clutch it seems to shift a lot smoother, no over-revving of the engine and doesn't give any alarming clunking sounds, suppose its just like a slower version of an electronic shifting device!
What do you all do? and should I be avoiding any particular technique? Thanks
