This was actually super helpful. I've been watching videos on properly downshifting for like 3 days, and just practicing in my neighborhood (I have my permit in 4 days, also riding an R3). I've seen videos from some of the top Moto channels, and they seem to just say "pull clutch and blip" about 30 times before ending the video. I appreciate you explaining the "If I'm at 5K RPM, I'm gonna blip to 6K RPM" type shit. That helped a ton. Thanks for the video!
its very satisfying once u know the timing ! Even better when u have an aftermarket exhaust installed..i too did it while riding the 390 duke and my honda 110 dash wave underbone .Great vid bro
I’m learning to rev match but I have a 150 and so it jerks quite a bit so I’ve tried to break a bit before I rev match so it’s more smooth but is that what you’re supposed to do or should I engine break??
When exactly is the timing of the blip supposed to be? I understand the concept of rev matching, but I don't get if it's supposed to be done right before, during, or after your downshift. Additionally at what stage of the clutch am I supposed to be doing it? When the clutch is completely disengaged or as I'm releasing it?
Simultaneously when you pull ur clutch, u blip and at the same time u step down ur shifter. 3 actions literally at the same time when u wanna down shift
@@fungzian8939this right here. All you’re really doing when you rev match is matching the rpm to what it would be if you didn’t rev match and downshifted if that makes sense. Ex if you downshift without rev match, which you can do to see for yourself, you’ll notice the bike will go up in rpm and you’ll feel harder engine braking. Where as when you do rev match the rpm is already there. It’s all really just a feel thing so just go try it out and practice. You won’t damage your bike.
@2:20 i got a question? Im confused when you’re in 1st goin to second and you rev match does the bike accelerate or is only the rpms that go up when you’re holding the clutch
@@FullSendMiles thank you 🙏 im taking the motorcycle safety course July 21-23 and I bought my first motorcycle this month so i been taking it slow only riding on my home street which is a dead end
I understand the concept and i can do it sometimes but not that consistent but i was wondering when i shift down i blip up and when i shift up i blip down right?
@@mandypal9231no, so when I was coming to the stop I just put the bike in neutral and you don’t have to rev match into neutral, the bike is basically just idling
