    The first time I ever got on a bike I clutchless-upshifted from 1st to 2nd, knowing that it was possible. It felt amazing. Surprised myself during the Pre-Learners here in Australia. Now I do it all the time, even on softer acceleration - it's just so smooth.

    My 2014 street triple clutch shifts were a little rough feeling, never could get a consistent smooth shift. Clutchless shifts helped a lot. So I got a quick shifter, and man does that simply/ smooth everything out.

  • @KristianKumpula
    @KristianKumpula 5 лет назад +24

    Back when I was still practicing clutchless upshifts it felt like doing a magic trick, and it's so satisfyingly smooth that I upshift with the clutch only when I'm accelerating with just a tiny bit of throttle. No more little nudges while shifting under hard accelaration. I used to get false neutrals every now and then, but adjusting the position of the shift lever helped, and reversing the shift pattern helped even more (for my CBR 600 it was just a matter of flipping the shift rod linkage around), so if anyone else is having trouble getting this right consistently, I suggest trying one or both of those things.

    This is old school and all should practice it. Pure mechanical feel, actually you can sense when you go up with lever when is best time to push up or down. Actually when you cut of trottle you are releaving the gears of tension.
    On my 1290 SD R i have quick shifter for up and down and MSR for slip regulation so it is easy and controlable action. You can concentrate on drivin fully. But old school is the shit, you have to know it.

( i was on 95' Aprillia 250 - 2 stroke ). I told him that i have ordered Aprillia anti gravity cilinder under seat so that's why i can do that shit. And Millenial asked me how much that cost!!!

    Just tried it on my FZ6R. It works just like you say, but is not smooth (but clunky) than a full clutch shift. Also, works best for moderate acceleration. Requires more concentration and finesse to do it when going fast. It's novel, but at full acceleration, the traditional shift is solid/smoother if you just preload the clutch before shifting. I'll keep practicing at it.

    I try to do this on my Vulcan 1600 Classic but there's a bigger difference between first and second than there is with the rest of the gears. I find that I get smoother results when I use the clutch between first and second whether I'm upshifting or down shifting. I can down shift without the clutch too as long as I let off of the throttle, pre-load the shifter, and blip the throttle down. I've heard that results also depend on the bike too.

    Well I prefer to shift from 1st to 2nd with the clutch. I've heard some guys say - it would be better - for the learning or doing - at 2nd to 3rd and up to the 6th gear, and the shifting part from 1st to 2nd always with the clutch.
    Accidently I've it from 3rd to 4th gear - and then I realized I was shifting without the clutch.
    But really nice video.
    And guess what - I was training with a fresh new rider. He's got his driver license - well... his rider license - this month - and he is really a beginner. We did some basics. Stop and Go, a lot with the clutch and - really much talking about what could happen, and so on. It was soooo much fun today. And all the other bikers, who was passing by - had sooooo big eyes. Haha. It was a great day. And now he gained so much confidence in his bike and of course a lot self-confidence to ride. :)

    You have so many stop lines over there, it would be weird coming from the UK where we prefer roundabouts. You must feel like you're constantly braking to a stop :-) Stop lines here are only really reserved for blind junctions with poor visibility (anything else is a give way but you can just roll through them without stopping if you can see that you can safely do so)

      Yes, I've been doing this ever since I was taught it in Total Control's Advanced Riding Clinic Level 2...every bike I do this on. The Duke doesn't have a quick shifter.
      This is very common, I do something and people automatically ask to do another video of the same thing on a different bike...like getting my knee down. I have videos of me getting my knee down on over 10 different bikes...this is the same technique, bike doesn't matter.

      @@MotoJitsu I didn't mean to challenge you like ok you did with a Duke but you can't do with another bike.
      What I was trying to say is, I just wanted to be sure if it is possible to have same smooth shifting on a bigger bike. Because sometimes you can't get that kind of smooth transition between shifts even while using clutch on a bigger bike.
      PS: I believe it is very acceptable for people to ask for more videos, which means your technique is highly appreciated. Speaking for myself, getting knee down is pushing limits too much that I am not interested in to be honest.

      great vid Eddie, but you can actually do it on our bikes with GSAP. BMW style is preload then push up rest of way with throttle to get the upshift completed. However if we just preload and keep at that position you can clutchless shift as you describe in vid. I've done it and works fine, just tiny tiny throttle off and slips right into gear super smooth.

      @ItsBeenDanBefore 5 лет назад +3

      If done correctly, it won't. I don't exactly agree with Eddie saying that you should apply pressure to the shifter before you shift, I believe that doing that can cause eventual damage (but I'm not entirely certain as I haven't pulled apart an engine that has experienced Eddie's technique and an engine of clutchless shifting without pressure on the shifter). From how I clutchless shift, I'm prepared with my foot underneath the shifter but not adding any pressure. Then when I upshift, I cut throttle and push the shifter up, which is smoother than when I added pressure before. Ultimately, though, cutting the throttle for that small amount of time does the same thing as a clutch does - cuts the power delivery to the output shaft.

    • @MotoJitsu
