Hey all-

Does anyone else occasionally shift without pulling in the clutch? Sometimes on a steep hillclimb, I need to downshift fast-- and can't waiste time pulling in the clutch- so I let off the gas a touch and step down into a lower gear.

How bad is this?

 

Not a big as long as you are not under too much load. I do it all the time racing!

if i need to come out of a corner real hard to clear a jump or somthin i usually shift without it or somthin. sometimes if i really need it to rhomp i will hold it wide open and go thru the gears using the clutch though , i just wont let off the gas. its kinda hard to get that 400ex led sled off the ground.
