clutch to shift????????????? what does that mean?
Hi. WOW people use the clutch to up shift and down shift! I was in Boston 5 PM traffic and my clutch would not disengage. I drove my truck hone and replaced the master.clutch to downshift?????? on a motorcycle??
am I the only one who can drive a non syncro transmission vehicle?
Buddy bet me lunch I couldn't drive my 35 mile mostly higwway commute in my RSX type S without using the clutch, other than at FULL stops
MMMMMMMM BBQ Chicken Calzone is better when free
poor kid was mortified that you can drive a car without the clutch
Create the file in EE with the two-step (and nitrous if you please) then open in woolich. You won't see the two step settings but they are in there. I've done it many times.I asked them before, and they who told me about the way of saving first the file at EE then open it from WRT software and everything I saved and activate in EE will be working in the background of the WRT file
Typically you don't need to pull the lever to the switch to get clutch disengagement for your purposes. There is still no good reason for a two-step on a stock hand clutch bike though.It's possible to hook a toggle switch in the wire between the clutch sensor switch and the DJ Ignition Module. DJ doesn't recommend the ON/OFF toggle switch but I asked exactly for the reason @04LE mentioned, I sometimes clutch downshift to match revs at some pretty high engine speeds when riding twisties and a launch rev limiter would screw that up. I don't know how you guys do clutchless downshifts unless it's very low rpm. I would never even try downshifting without blipping at high rpm. Also I like modulating the clutch a little if it's a hard down shift. That slipper clutch we have is next to useless.
BTW, did a clutchless upshift today. Well, I just touched the clutch and backed off the throttle. Yep, very easy and smooth.
I disagree. It's one less thing to focus on when launching. Pre-stage, stage, pin it and focus on the tree.There is still no good reason for a two-step on a stock hand clutch bike though.
What are you using to find out the a/f ratios of each gear at whatever rpm?
@Mr Brown Yup, that's how I understand they work, pull the clutch lever, open the throttle 100% and the engine revs to whatever you set your launch rpm at. Slip the clutch at WOT, the launch rev limit remains at what it is set at. Clutch lever fully (or almost fully) released, the clutch sensor switch closes and the launch rev limiter is deactivated, you can rev as high as you want up to whatever your redline limiter is set at.
I have a quickshifter on the bike but I'm not sure I'll be able to use that for peak rpm shifts. It has not been extremely reliable for high rpm shifts so far. I have to sort that out. That's a whole different topic though.
If I use the clutch lever to shift with a two step, I know it's going to zip the launch rev limit for 90 milliseconds or so while I have the clucth lever pulled. Is there any harm in that?
Sounds like this guy might have been using the clutch to shift. I think I heard the launch limiter come on shifting to second in some video I saw years back. Maybe that was the redline limiter I heard.

For me leaving at 6k+ it was always a struggle to get the rpm right. 2 step solved that problem.I find it easier to launch to without 2 step on a hand clutch bike. I had it on my drag bike cause I had a problem with my bike when throttling the bike had a glitch in it. My stock motor bike launches great with without 2 step.
You've got more guts than me if you do that on a stock clutch bike. Hand slider, absolutely. As Busakiller noted, if the switch and stack height are set to have the switch right at the engagement point it could be done.I disagree. It's one less thing to focus on when launching.

6 over geared-1/+3 gen 1 stock motor, pipe and PC. I weighed about 270 suited then.You've got more guts than me if you do that on a stock clutch bike. Hand slider, absolutely.

Yea, that is probably fairly safe. My current stock clutch bike is 2013 motor, -1/+3 and I'm 160 so I roll the throttle open.6 over geared-1/+3 gen 1 stock motor, pipe and PC. I weighed about 270 suited then.
That extra hundred I'm carrying makes a lot of difference. I gotta hammer it to get it to 60 worth a damn.Yea, that is probably fairly safe. My current stock clutch bike is 2013 motor, -1/+3 and I'm 160 so I roll the throttle open.
