Race pattern shift

Post by ozzraptor »

Just interested to know if anyone else is using race pattern gearshift. I really liked it before and it seems to work providing the sprocket cover is removed. May need slightly longer shift rod ?

Wouldnt dare try it!!

The odd few times I have ridden a race bike it has resulted in a few embarrassing moments when I got the shift wrong way round....................

Stick to what is natural I reckon.

Lucky i have only one bike but the race pattern feels so natural. I remember hitting the rev limiter going down instead of up on my last bike :oops: most time you can feel it just before you let the clutch out if you have gone the wrong way and clutch back in again, i wonder if slipper clutch helps in the event ? but once you transition its all good until you ride another bike lol i have gipro connected so that will also display the gear selected!
