If you disagree, please tell me why!
If you can have safety features like wheelie control and TC why not use them? I don’t really care about how much I’ve learned without traction control if I round a corner into sand and slide out and TC could have saved the bike.
Quick shifter is fun to use
My woolich race tools has quickshifter, launch control, 2 step🔥🔥, pit limiter, auto blip. The mt07 is a whole different animal with the race tools
@@brucewayne6858 If it makes you happy then its worth it!
@@davidrichardson8394 fair enough. I’m not saying electronic aids aren’t helpful. I just think it’s more important to watch your surroundings and let your experience judge what you need to do in case of emergencies
I agree with everything except the ABS, you can train yourself to brake an ABS but, when a danger suddenly arrives and you're in panic, ABS will probably save you, especially when it's raining
That’s why I’m saving for a modern daily rider. My 1970 Honda cb 350 is awesome but the brakes suck😂
Yes, but actually no. First thing to do in danger is to try to dodge it. Then brake. Braking is still unefficient during cornering. If you know how to brake you can make it better than computer. Shit happens when pavement is loosy and tires arent. If theres oil then still ABS wont save you.

ABS has saved me and my 690ktm 3 times in 3 year. Once tractor came behing corner on gravel road so that's certain i would have drop the bike or hit the tractor
He said you don't need it. Which is a factual statement. You don't need it. Yes, it helps people who don't know how to ride, but so do training wheels.
@@Wmoore1 i got it but then you kinda need it if you cant shift faster than shifter, as long as you want super fast gear changes ofc but never mind 😅
ABS has further stopping distance than no-ABS but to achieve that you really need to know to brake (i mean pro level), hence ABS is great cause not all people know to ride good.
"You don't need a bike, just fly"
🤣
You don't need a bike, just learn how to run as fast a bike.. It's just as fast
It's been 2 years since I followed your instructions/tricks and now my bike's gearbox is screwed 😂
yep
Most of my bikes didn't or don't have abs but despite that I'm riding for the past 33 years I'm telling you bro, abs is a life saver. 👍
In my country, only middle class who can buy a vehicle with ABS and airbag option, because the price gap between abs and non-abs mostly 20-25% more expensive, and NOT all the legal manufacture and car dealers sell the vehicle with abs and airbag as the standard feature. Its really sad because I only can afford a cheap secondhand car and motor bike without the safety feature like many other people here, I always hope and pray next year I can buy the new one with all the safety and life saver feature.
Yes but like if you look up videos of people who do professional tests on them with whole tracks and like study groups. Abs allows you to safely stop better then regular brakes. It’s 1000000 times safer.

😆😆😆😆 Class comment
I don't think his intention was such that. I think he wants to say that these things are not necessary for a regular common biker for day to day usage, even though if it's a big bike. But for me abs is must.
A quickshifter has nothing to do with making you a better rider, it's just way more comfortable than manual quickshifting on the road. And if you want to take it on the track, you have less to worry about shifting and can concentrate on your riding position and taking corners the right way.
"seat belts are useless if you ain't going to crush too"
The one who says “you don’t need ABS to be a good rider” crashes harder 😂
Or they aren’t stupid and know exactly how to hit the brake in a panic situation if u don’t think u can stop ride the wave and relax because ur gonna get hit regardless abs or not ur going down or ur staying on new riders need to get that In ur head that u will crash and it won’t be avoidable now do u still wanna ride?
Haven't needed ABS in 25 years of riding. Sure, ABS is good - but don't treat it like a security blanket.

@@gradyturner3367 dude, what is your car in your profile picture?
Not everyone is a sublime rider like yourself, man. I need ABS. I'm a mere mortal, see.
It takes time and practice. Ultimately, I just think it’s better if you don’t have to depend on ABS. No problem using it though as it is very good on most bikes
Look up progressive braking. Or how to properly brake. If you ever get a bike without it, you'll probably dump it the first time you have to emergency stop.
Also abs is annoying on track
@@jcmartinez7527 I never had a bike with ABS, and this has cost me two broken bones. If you think you can manually do the work of ABS, you are deluded.
@@gdevelek 99% of bikes dony have ABS. and you can definitely do the work of ABS if you know how to use the brakes properly. Yes it takes time to learn to be a pro at braking, but its possible.
@@jcmartinez7527 Good luck, you'll need it!!
What I learned after installing and riding my quick shifter:
1) More handle bar control and front end feedback
2) Easier to hit shift points (instead of short shifting)
3) I could go 100% throttle instead of 90, 95 anticipating that I'm going to have to chop it soon
What do they do?
@@MikeGeeezyy its like paddle shifters in a car, except bike style. cuts timing to the engine so u can shift

Just two days ago ABS saved my freaking life
I dont get why people are arguing.
Im just saying that im still *alive* because of the abs
Me too dude, I was chasing my friend into a McDonald’s parking lot and almost slid out but abs saved my ass and that’s the only time it’s ever kicked in for me and oh was I grateful
Saved you because you made a braking error. Non-ABS is more effective as long as you don't panic and screw up.
@@dannykyle738
As humans tend to make errors. Yeah?
@@dannykyle738 some people did ABS and non ABS braking tests (you can find them on yt). The non ABS won by a few meters but this was a scenario where they knew when and how to brake on a straight line.
If you for some reason need to brake really hard without any warnings then it's better to have ABS because the chance of fucking up because of a slight panic moment is pretty high
@@mistirion4929 If you need to brake that hard and fast you are already screwed. Swerve. A vigalint rider or driver does not panic.
"You can do this in your car".

I don't need quickshifter, I need auto blip
I used to agree until I got one.. they’re worth every penny, very fun to have :)
With a quickshifter you dont need to let go off the throttle and thats fun, thats why i'm ordering myself a Healtech quickshifter next week 😍😍
Qs actually cuts off your throttle instantly, so it is actually the same thing.
@@mjsheen8445 quick shifters work by cutting spark. newer model bikes i’m sure use a combination of the throttle and spark though
@@mjsheen8445 you missing the point, you cannot stay max open throttle while clutchless shifting like you can with qs
@@ghost500e the difference is that the Qs cuts power for only 50-100ms, which is a lot quicker and more consistent than your right hand
@Sbsjsj Hdjskdn is it? Ever raced on a track ? With two equally skilled riders, the person with the qs is going to come out on top
Electronics are important. Electronics don't make you a bad rider neither does it lessen the fun. Electronics doesn't take your control when you are in control. It only kicks in when you are not in control and headed for a disaster. It will take controls from you then and stabilise the situation and then give it back to you for you to enjoy the rest of the ride.
This guy just discovered clutchless shifts. He's a genius!
How did he do it?
@@AverageJosh769 just take your toe and hold into the shift.
As soon as you barely let off the throttle it’ll shift without using the clutch, same with downshifting. Literally as soon as the ignition cuts out from letting off, it’ll shift.
@@crazbob1230 i know how to clutchless shift i ride moto lol, i was playing off ops sarcasm
@@AverageJosh769 that was shit sarcasm most people genuinely don't know
@@crazbob1230 I still searched for this comment. Thanks
it does make a badass sound
This is facts
Fz class should have should best sound of the year lmao ??
So does a clutch and throttle blip to the right rpm. Not quite as quick, but much more satisfying feeling
They sound annoying after a while. 09 or an inline 4 scream I much prefer
You also don’t NEED a motorcycle and one could argue how they’re a waste of money......yet here we are, buy what you want and can afford to buy 🤷🏽♂️
🤣🤣
Dunno man with gas prices these days I wouldn’t call a motorcycle a waste of money
My track bike is an 03 RC51 and I have it setup as race shift and I absolutely love that bike on the track. There is something to be said for riding old fashioned with manual rev matches and clutch modulation. But my daily rider is a 20 Triumph Speed Triple RS and that does have an up and down QS and man there is nothing like hitting a nice stretch of pavement and just winding her up 1-3 WOT with the QS. The sound of that screaming triple damn near wets my pants every time when banging through the QS and especially when you hit a nice curvy section and your going up and down. Its just a blast. Of course you don't need it. Its not going to make you a better rider on its own. But you really can't compare clutchless shifts with a QS and auto blipper. They are just totally different worlds.
QS: Totally unnecessary, but they can be fun and the sounds are satisfying.
ABS: Aside from making maintenance a little more involved there's no downsides. Even if it's an optional extra - if it saves your bacon even one time its paid for itself.
Not for track use, its very necessary
Hitting that perfect shift every time is hard. It’s even harder if you’re going fast on twisty roads. One shift or another will not be quite on point and in the long term, that’s bad for your gearbox
exactly, even if you are a little off each time, it's unnecessary wear, specially since using the clutch barely makes a time difference, the time it takes to blip the throttle or to let go off it is the time i use to pull and let go off the clutch
you guys don't know what you are talking about the quick shifter just blips throttle for you. he is doing the exact same thing only manually, with his wrist, it is very easy and does the exact same function.
@@peanutbutterpadre1519 except the quickshifter/blipper blips the throttle perfectly every time. You as a human can’t possibly blip the throttle perfectly every time. One downshift or another will not be perfect and that, as I already said in my other comment, can harm your gearbox in the long run.
I’m not saying it’s not possible, I’m saying it’s not good for the bike.
That MT07 probably will have some issues after 30-40k Kilometers run.
@@matthiaseb2928 no dude it is the same the trans is unchanged just ecu tuning and you can do the same thing the ecu does just as fast as a quick shift you just have to move your wrist a bit when you put pressure on the shift lever
@@peanutbutterpadre1519 bro- do you even ride?
“Move your wrist a bit” are you serious?
There’s a lot more to it than just that
It definitely depends on the bike and the quality of the shifter mechanism. I clutchless up shift all the time, but I use my clutch for downshifting just to decrease the margin of error
The purpose of quick shifters is for racing applications mostly.
There's no release of the throttle at all while shifting with a quick shifter.
To add to that, the majority of aftermarket quickshifters have various things you can adjust, which is useful for racing. Not so much for the road but they’re definitely fun to use and sound neat
That's why i only use a qs on my track bike. If a qs comes standard on my next roadbike so be it
Ya but they’re great fun on the street as well
@@rudolphcarr They fucken rule no matter where.

i know how to do this and I still want a quickshifter.
I've only recently started learning, and maybe have like under 20 miles in riding experience, and I love clutchless shifting, but I don't think there's an alternative to quickshifters on a track
The sound and the feel that the quickshifter makes is incomparable 🤣 when you do clutchless shifting it's sometimes awkward...the quickshifter is just too smooth
@@ivansaragoni4525 Not to mention it does that faster and without the risk of mechanical damage.
Actually in manual cars you can’t always clutches shift because they have pads that try to match the gears and they need the clutch in to operate smoothly. Semis and older manuals you can clutch less shift though
Clutchless shifting in a car is a good way to fuck your synchros up. Whole different type of transmission honestly
I had an 03 R6 and having literally zero rider aids made me appreciate how much nicer they are to ride with when I got a 19
Wait until you have one, bet you never gonna say that again.
I’ve ridden bikes with quick shifters before...
@@ShakeNBlake509 then you should know how much fun they can be when set up well, especially with autoblip on downshifts. love the woolich QS on my MT09
@@cancelthesquad I rode an s1000rr with a QS and it was cool but just didn’t do it for me for some reason
@@ShakeNBlake509 so it's a waste of money cause "it didn't do it" for you? Not a lot of people NEED motorcycles too but a lot of us have them cause they're fun.
Quickshifters are for lazy riders the ones that dont make it far as a rider, makes the same mistakes 5x
I actually much prefer QS for regular road riding over spirited riding. You still have to understand the mechanics of shifting to use a QS; I don't really know what bad habits it can cause.
If it’s an OEM setup no worries. Just be positive on the lever and keep the throttle open
I don't even own a bike and I managed to master this while practicing for my A2 licence.
If you haven’t experienced the feeling of being fully tucked in, WOT and bangin through the gears.. you just don’t know hehe! So good!!
Exactly. It's just a continuously fluid experience.
@@ANSWERTHECALLOFJESUSCHRIST Yeah, it's like afterburner after afterburner. I agree that you don't need them and yes; it's good to know how to ride without them, but man is it fun!
YOU ACTUALLY NEED ABS TO BE ALIVE FOR UPLOADING THAT NEAR MISS FOOTAGE.... It saved my life once.
My buddies thought I was joking when I told them I only use my clutch to leave a light. Been riding like this for forever lol.
Incroyable.
Quick shifters can preserve your clutch for longer than without one, because it is electronically controlled, you get smoother shifts every time and dont risk dropping the clutch incorrectly.
The sound of an R6 screaming at 18k rpm while quick shifting tho 😁 can never give up on that sound
I love my quick shifter it's just so fun to use and I never have to go off the throttle. The "quick shifting" without a quick shifter is also ok I did it on my 125 but mostly for convenience and not fun. Quick shifter over no quick shifter everyday!
Learn to rev match n the quick shifter becomes useless n boring
@@Malibus_Most_Wanted there is a downshifter with auto rev and we call it (autoblipper) which is kind like quickshifter
I've been doing this for 20 years, I've had a ton of people tell me I'll ruin the gearbox. Everything has always been fine except for one time
I thought bro removed the clutch from his bike for more assurance 💀
The explosive back fires I get from my quick shifter at full throttle are well worth it. 🤣
A bit of a late question but what bike do you have?
@@motogoose2982 2019 zx6r
It's easy on a cable throttle bike like on an 07. But once you move up to a throttle by wire like an MT-10, it's not nearly as smooth since there is a slight delay. I have both an FZ-07 and FZ-10 🤗
Bro i exactly fell the same as you i also used to do it bro that a very very good motivation to others,i use to do that without quick shifter broo,same as you broo love you keep it up👍👍👍👍
that weather give me childhood dreams and old memories
You are dang good! I ordered a QS to be like you without practicing.
I had an mt07 and did this all the time, now I've got a street triple and it wasn't as easy... so I put a quick shifter on 🤣
Yes, because the yamaha transmission is shitty in comparison. I have tried clutchless shifting on 4 bikes. Tenere700 (same enginge/transmission as mt07), bmw gs700, ktm950sm and suzuki bandit 600. The only bike that is has even been POSSIBLE to clutchless shift is the yamaha. It is flimsy beyond belief. I fucking kicked the shifter with no mercy on that bmw, would not budge. Doing it on my ktm and bandit was possible but made horrible noise. No way i am doing it. There is a reason they have quickshifters. I think the ENGINEERS WHO CREATE THE BIKES know more than shakenbake😂😂
@@HeyAddieImTojo this is not true I ride a bandit 600 and shift clutch less all the time. Only upward though as I find shifting down clutch less a pain. Also not every rpm range supports clutch less shifting.
@@NatteBadMuts hmmmm almost like.... not all bikes are the same?!?? Who woulda thunk it???
@@HeyAddieImTojo I’m gonna just put myself out there and say that if you get the timing right and the process right it will work on damn near any bike out there. Granted some will be much smoother than others but it does work. The key is to already have slight pressure on the shifter, come off the gas for a second, and then it drops right into the next gear. The key is to take the pressure off the gear box so timing is critical. I even shift up and down on my brand new Harley but shifting down is pretty smooth while shifting up isn’t smooth at all unless you’re up at the top 1/3rd of the rev range.
You are absolutely right technique over technology 😊❤️💕
Bro you’re smashing your gears ⚙️
ABS is a good feature, saved me a couple of times. So nope
It does however play a big part in the overall riding experience and it doesn't hurt. So the real question is whether you can afford it or not.
I race a 2015 R1 and for me a quick shifter is a huge deal. Those tens you spoke of in the video mean the world of course and also going into corners being able to downshifted faster through the gears without having to pull the clutch in and blip the throttle allows for the bike to continue engine breaking which isn’t the case without one. (Smoothly at least) for the street I’d say it’s more so a gimmic than anything since I’d do the same as you but they can be fun.
On the clutch part, 100% agree..
My father has an old 2stroke motorcycle and he always tell me that you don't have to engage the clutch that much and if for some reason your front and rear breaks don't work, you can do an "engine break".. shift to a lower gear (do not rev match) and it will decelerate your speed..
On the ABS and any other electronics part.. I am kinda glad these are now a standard equipment in any motorcycle
The older ones are RAW and "somewhat" dangerous for any beginner riders.. but that in itself is the beauty of older bikes.
blip the throttle every time you wanna shift while putting pressure on the shifter.. up/down works the same..
yes you need quickshifter for very smooth and fast shifting
During a heavy acceleration Qs is good to have dont need to go off the throttle and no neef for clutch and badass sound depens on QS but the on ktm duke 790 is awesome
It's normally referred to as floating the shifter
No matter how good of a rider you are, people could still jump in front of you and having electronics like Abs could save your life in sudden situations
The only reason I decided to start riding is because now bikes comes with abs and traction control
That means you are not ready for bike.

@@donproduction6248 Starting to ride a bike just because of TC is bad idea, that means you want to ride fast (otherwise it defeats the purpose of TC) and will never learn throttle control which is crucial on bikes. Wanting bunch of electronics on bike doesn't make you smart but ignorant.

@@anindanahiyan8818 well once I went to quickshifters riding has been so nice though. No chance of messing up anything.
@@Coverttrickster oh yeah, quick shifters have no replacement, at least when it comes to feel and feedback. having to manually interrupt the throttle, even without pulling the clutch just doesn't feel very seamless, albeit being better than clutch-in shifting

@@hoodedr6 It's easy as dude and doesn't hurt your gearbox. If you back off the throttle (like you do when using the clutch) it will easily go into the next gear. Quick shifters are fun because they cut the spark at the correct time so you don't have to back off. Great fun, plus they sound cool af..
ABS gives you MAXIMUM braking power. Even learning how to brake without it yourself (as I did on my A1) you will never get completely maximum braking power as perfectly as ABS will every single time
Also you can blip without damaging the gearbox, but in the process of learning you absolutely WILL damage it
Lmao then why do moto gp, wsbk or bsb not use abs
@@gr1mr3apa15 They are pro riders on a prepped racetrack on race slicks. There is no comparision to the street which has oil, coolant, sand, gravel, road debris, tar snakes, painted lines etc.. abs doesnt decrease the shortest braking distance possible compared yo non abd, but increases the chance you will utilize the brakes to their maximum potential while staying in control, most benefit in the wet. Pro riders have tried to beat abs in the wet and failed! I think the faster the bike/more it sees rain the more important abs is.
Once you learn how to shift like this, you feel like a pro rider.
I learnt it second day after I got a bike. it's one of the easiest things you can learn.
So you don’t have to pull in the clutch to shift or down shift ? What’s the benefit of pulling it in ?
Abs is not needed most of the time except the "OH SHIT!!" moments
I'm sold, this dude know what we want and don't want to have fun. Taking mine off my tonight.
I ride an R6 at its peak and currently don't have a quickshifter, but the reason why you actually want a QS is:
- physically and practically you can't reduce throttle+shift+restore throttle as quick as the electronics can simply cut-off of the spark -> you can maintain the WOT
- when you make a mistake with the throttle, you'll damage stuff
- auto rev-match is possible with quickshifters -> decreases lap-times due to quicker corner-entry
Gearbox sales will have a massive boost with this advice.
Love the vid man. People just dull their skills with every new feature they “upgrade” to
Thank you, I appreciate it!
You’re only able to downshift like that because you’re in such a high gear at slow speed. If you do that going faster you’re going to lock up the rear wheel without rev matching. Its fun with a quick shifter that’s why . Just like you don’t “need” a slip on but it’s funner with one . You just sound salty that you don’t have one lol
My Buell ( XB12S) will NOT shift with out the Clutch 🤷🏻♂️
That's weird
I don't think I've ever engaged my abs, but I'm still glad I have it on my first bike. I've made a few mistakes.
I found out why abs is good. Almost slid into next riding season
I prefer my QS. Love the crisp sound between shifts. Love how smooth the shift is. I used to clutchless shift all my bikes, and I couldn’t go back to that all the time.
This is call floating gears. It something that truck drivers will do and it involves controlling the throttle and this makes it so you don’t need the clutch to shift
Nobody NEEDS a quick shifter but I do love having it
The fz07 sounds so terrific 😍🤌
Exactly what I did with my dirt bike. I taught myself how to ride a dirt bike with the knowledge of driving stick cars. Felt pretty natural. I almost never use the clutch on my bike, except for starting ofc.
When you downshift on your dirt bike do blip throttle before shifting or after?
@@bunnyman6321 maybe like a millisecond before the shift.
@YotaLC-wo6qf Thank you! Do you downshift then brake or brake then downshift?
bro I've been preaching this you're so on point
You're going to learn once you lock that front wheel up without abs in a panic 😂
The manufacturer of the motorcycle says to always use the clutch as the transmission is not designed to be continuously used that way. 2020 r3 owner manual
I’m not impressed with the quick shifting but I’m impressed with the sound of the exhaust,sound so good
Exactly I've done on all my bikes as well. When you know how to let go the accelerator and the RPM you can quick shift as good as the electronic today.
Under full throttle and more aggressive throttle application, the fuel/spark interrupter/quick shifter can be an essential piece of the electronics package. Where the QS is designed to work is under heavy throttle applications and under aggressive deacceleration events where every advantage counts, racing or for personal enjoyment. Also, the QS reduces possible damage over time compared to non quickshifter use under w.o.t. and will prolong/extend some driveline parts.
The quickshifter component is not intended/designed for casual riding and laziness. Using the latest develooed quickshifter in addition to the propper ecu electronics to take advantage of the QS can reduce acceleration times more than .10 sec 0-60/1/4 mile.
Many bolt-on car/motorcycle performance parts alone can cost into the neighborhood of $500 to 1,500 OMor more just to reduce .10 - .30 sec in 1/4 mile. In some applications when hp gains have reached the upper limits without major internal modifications, gaining more hp/reducing times can cost many $1,000s.
I already know this method but it sounds so good when using quickshifter
Good information Blake!!
I used to agree with you, but since I’ve started to do trackdays and guys with the same exact bike as me, re geared same like me, only difference is a quickshifter, every gear shift they ever so slightly pull away from me. On some laps where I ride flawlessly, and position myself to pass, I end up losing my gains(ever so slight gains) after a straight.
i agree with wheelie control and shifting stuff but ABS is helpful in the rain especially
Nice example of clutchless shifting. I learned this back in my teen years on my suszuki pe 175.
ABS is essential, when you do emergency braking to avoid collision, you'll get panic and just hit the brake as hard as you can
Just bought a 2022 MT-09 SP. mainly for the cruise control. But it’s nice to have the rest of the stuff
We all know this, but we do it for the that sound 😂
