Power Shifting

Rushe06 · 04-19-2011, 06:14 PM

Is power shifting in our SI's similar to power shifting on a bike? On my bike I just preload the shifter, snap the throttle back just a fraction and it will slide right into the next gear.

Anyone with a non-elementary level response would be appreciated.

Just keep your right foot planted on the throttle while you row through the gears.

Ok, from what im reading this was a stupid message. Disregard my ignorance.

Not stupid but it's been covered more then a few times hence those responses. Just don't lift off the throttle while shifting hard.

Idk about bikes really but I imagine if you did that with one you'd 360 flip it or something.

You wont, as long as you dont do it from launch. I have a 600 and the front will lift from 1st to 2nd but not enough to where you have to left off the throttle.

Go on YouTube and look for videos from " ak47performance ", he has a compilation video and that mofo can shift.

My only experience on 2 wheels is a bicycle and a Honda xr80r. The Honda used to lift on a car type powershift into second but never did on a clutchless shift. I miss that thing : (
