Slipper Clutch and Friction Zone

[bernieecht]

2016 R1200GSW as well....... Gear Shift Pro takes getting used to, as it requires that you just keep the throttle ON through the shift. It's against decades of experience that has one want to do otherwise. But it is some slick piece of kit... as long as your do what it wants.

Thanks for the reply.
How far do you have the throttle open when you use Gear Shift Pro? Also what rpm’s?
Downshifting works fine, no throttle.

It actually seems to be a tad smoother on a harder acceleration than a gentler one. I'd say everything up to WFO is fine. (remember, this was originally designed as race technology used on the S100RR).
Generally, I don't bother with GSP upshifts until i'm in 3rd to 4th zone.
RPMs are... wherever.

Thanks, I guess I will have to try it and get used to what the results are.
