  1. Geartronics also sell a kit that looks rather good, even has a few videos on their site explaining and showing how stuff works. http://www.geartronics.co.uk/paddleshift.htm Nice to hear all of the different opinions Sounds like using the clutch is the way to go maybe, but with more of a manual sync then you might be used to from a car.
  2. I have a Westfield Megabusa with a Hayabusa engine and Hayabusa 6 speed sequential gear box
  3. Ok, Being a "car engine"-guy for many years, shifting without clutching just felt a bit scary, but it sounds like I should try it, hehe. Thanks for all the response so far. :driving:(I think you are right, this smilie does in fact seem very appropriate )
  4. I have been looking around on different forums, trying to find one that had a few Megabusa owners, and it seems that this forum does I got my Megabusa only a few days ago, so I am still learning to drive it and I was wondering about shifting gears. As you all know, the Megabusa has a sequential gear box from the Hayabusa. I was wondering how you (other owners) prefer to do upshifts and downshifts ? Do you release throttle, clutch and then push the gear lever or do you do clutch-less shifting by putting load on the gear shifter and then just lifting off the throttle a little bit to let the dogs engage in the new gear ? Or maybe you do it in a completely different manner ? One of the articles that made me wonder was this, which tells me I might be doing it wrong with my "standard-car synchromesh-shifting style": http://www.hewland.com/svga/help.htm Anyway, I would love you hear from guys who have driven the car for a while and has some experience in what seems to be the most "reliable" way / best way to shift
