Whats a dairy faster hehe. Do I pull it instead of the clutch

[G4L4XY]

You can pull whatever you like sir

Pretty much cuts the ignition (or Fuel) allowing you to keep the throttle pinned wide open while you change gears (clutchless) and resumes it once the change is complete.

Normally a solenoid is attached by the shifter which sends the signal to the ECU/Powercommander to either cut the ignition or fuel.

You can also run a airshifter which is operated from a button (usually the horn) which will change gears for you without you having to use the shifter at all.

Your welcome...

How do quickshifters work? Do they do up and down shifts? I presume you still need the clutch?

Q = how do quickshifters work?
A= they work bloody well

The MV's is a gem to use. Even with mild acceleration at low revs it snips up a gear like magic.

Funny thing when the F3 came out a new owner moaned on the Owners forum how badly his worked at changing ...down! Doh

Well I should know by now not to ask motorcycle tech questions on KB.

I did ask on one in the US and it has lead to a discussion with an engineer over there. Hes going to do some prototyping and see if what we think will work does. If so we may have created a low cost and easy to use shifting system for people with a disability on their left side.

They could just get an old Triumph. You would then have to find a way for them to use the rear brake

Depends on what you call low cost, there's already push button shifter systems available

Clutchless full throttle upshifts, and will be putting one on the Sidecar

you homo..

why would you bother engineering one up? there are plenty already available on the market. I have a simple air system in the shed that still requires u to use the clutch if you want to and push a button to either move the shifter up or down through the gears. Or you can go full on and get the ign cut ones so you dont have to use the clutch either.. What else would you want?

If hes a paraplegic maybe one that operates off brain signals... and steers the bike too.. and brakes..

free..

when you get one for your LCR can you get me a low cost one as well for me' Windle?

Low cost as in very cheap compared to push button systems. Its all just an idea at this stage. I would like to think if it works and somebody that is disabled needed one I could give it to them or sell at the cost of the parts.

As I say, its still an idea.

Good man, what's the level of disability? Might be able to help out with a few parts or designing if you need it.
