  • My Tracer 900 has a quick shifter and the MT09 before it.

    Absolutely love it and wouldn’t want to go back to a bike without one.

    Still use the clutch for slow riding around town but the ability to keep the throttle pinned when accelerating is so much fun.

    Still definitely feels ‘manual’

  • Interesting, maybe I should have a go on one before crossing it off my list. Famous last words but feel like I'm getting to the end of the mod list, apart from boring starter upgrades next year and maybe a Sigma slipper clutch in the near future.

  • Slipper clutch and quick shifter are the two things I love most about my bike in terms of the driving experience.

  • Slipper clutches on big twins are highly recommended. I lost count the number of times I was on the lockstops sideways on my TL1000S after being too keen on downshifting / corner entry. Spectacular but pant staining. Hard on the brakes through the left kink into a fast roundabout was invariably where it would let loose. Doubly bad as you had to gather it all up then flick it right in a hurry!
