Nothing great, first attempt that day using a gopro. This was my first session after lunch, and I was already gasping for air lol I'm fat and out of shape lol

Best time was a 1:20 during this session. I already know I need a lot of work lol

Looking at your right hand on the gas going back and forward so you can shift, makes me realize that a quickshifter is not just a nice shinny part to have, it is a very important part to have if you don't want to get tired and even decrease your lap times...depending on the level you are at.
 
You can shift with less hand movement but you still can't shift as fast as a QS.

You can't really tell on YouTube but when you watch the 60fps on gopro studio (cineform) it looks awesome crisp and smooth and slow motion would be nice if I had time to edit

Youtube is only 30fps ;)

If you upload it to vimeo they support 60fps :D

I am saying you don't, and I am glad I got one :) ...mostly because I am too lazy for all that hand movement....most times


I think Dricked means you can up shift a bit smoothly with the hand, also a 1/6 throttle turn would help

Did you check out the $500+ price tag :/.... I'm not that lazy lol

Ahh, my friend got his for $400, musta been used maybe.

It's a serious piece of kit. Guaranteed to win your track day with that installed

If you put pressure on the shifter and just slightly let off it should slip into the next gear.

I don't even touch the clutch on my upshifts as it is now, I left off the throttle and pin it and repeat. I only use my clutch for down shifts

If it makes any difference, I also use GP Shift style

Oh nice :) I just converted my bike to GP shift, haven't rode it yet! I'm scared :) lol. I guess the slipper clutch might save me if I get it wrong :(

She'll be going into a shop to get a custom shift rod made so I can fit a bazzaz QS sensor on it.
