    wow didn't expect to find that almost everybody don't use the shifter, I use it all the time both ways, I like to ease into the next gear and let it out according to how much power I want. Am I messing anything up by letting the clutch shifter slowly, burning anything out sooner? slipper clutch 09 R6, have done a couple shiftless not near a science for me easier to use the shifter for me, all street riding though need that extra control in traffic. Get some straight aways though will practice. All you do is let off the throttle a bit right then it jumps in, what rpm's do you let the throttle down at?

    Turns out I was trying to do clutchless wrong. It works fine. Though 1st to second is a little more violent than I'd like. Probably my fault though.

    You guys mean "clutchless" not "shiftless" right?

    Shiftless riding would be interesting, "Yeah, I'm such a bad ass I redline everywhere I go in first gear!"

    You has them backwards, and I would advise editing that last post before a severe flamefest ensues.

    You clutch with your hand and shift with your foot.
