[QUOTE="palerider, post: 168207, member: 3572"] Thanks, Fastmax, The problem is that the disengagement is unpredictable, and in stop-and-go LA traffic that can be dangerous. After 1500 miles I too have figured out how to shift smoothly, and I can do it (nearly) all the time, but I still have to think about it to do it. I'm glad people like the AE, and I'm glad Yamaha had the balls to put it out there. I think that was the right decision, and I don't regret having made the choice to try it. I think they'll refine it and make it better over time. I love the bike--hey, it's not for sale--and maybe eventually the shifting will become second nature. But the question was would I buy it again knowing what I know now, and my answer is no. [/QUOTE]
