clutch or not to clutch?

[Mzokk]

When I had my last GSXR i never used the clutch on upshifts. But the R1150GS box is pants by comparison so I always use it!

Always 1st to second, then clutchless all the way unless I'm really giving it the berries, then i'll use the clutch. How's about on the way back down who gives it a little blip on every down change,and goes one at a time down the box. I've never gone down more than one, I know some do two at a time on down shifts.

I used to slip the gixer up gears, n blip throttle on downshift, comes from ridin old carb bikes, (like the racers use on the track) ,dont recon it makes much difference with modern bikes now!

how many ov you used to rev the engine before hitting the kill switch ?
that one last blip then shut off

dont do it anymore now, novelties worn off or sumat

i just pull the clutch in and downshift to whatever gear's needed. often more than one.

Sounds like a few of you could do with some straws.
