[QUOTE="feejerbkb, post: 1443889, member: 90668"] I agree with Prosolar - I'm not inclined to downshift into first until I'm just coming to a stop. And just to check, you are rev matching when you downshift????? That would mean when at 4k in 2nd gear you would spin the motor up to like 5k+ while the clutch is in and while stepping on the gear lever, right? That is motorcycle shifting 101 and I don't mean to be condescending or anything like that. I hear plenty of folk on motorcycles passing my driveway who don't understand how to rev match while shifting up/down. [/QUOTE]
