[QUOTE="griffithds, post: 623289, member: 17669"] I have an 06' AE and love it. I also ride dirt bikes so I have to go from clutch leverless to clutch lever riding with much regret. I have come to wonder why dirt bikes have not gone to this type of shifting. I have never missed a shift on the AE. NEVER! You can't even if you wanted to. Missing shifts while bouncing over terain happens all the time on the dirt bikes. Don't think that this type of shifting is only for city traffic type riding. It is quite a pleasure to just flick a lever to instantly shift either up or down. Every shift is fast and accurate. And a computor controled clutch/shift is much faster than a person can pull in a clutch lever and release it while pushing down on the shift lever with your foot. [/QUOTE]
