Huh, I'm not sure what a quick shifter is needed for, but I want one...lol. time for a deep dive into how this benifits me as a ruder.. thanks for the vidro.
When accelerating hard do you let go of the throttle during shifts? Or keep the power on? Just want to make sure I won't wheelie every upshift before purchasing. Great video by the way you have me subscribed
Great video. Super informative. I’m curious are there quick shifter rods that don’t require cutting? Also I’m leaning towards the Healtech so that I don’t need the powercommander. Thx
Great video. Simon, how old are you ? I'm asking because ohhh my f god.... you are like my twin brother. I showed your video to my family and friends and they swear it's ME. Its like looking in the mirror, this never happened to me
Can you explain the difference between a normally open switch style vs normally closed? I have a 2020 z900 with dynojet QS but not sure to run normally open or closed. thx
Its telling the Power commander what style of shifter you have, old quick shifters like the one I installed were either a push or a pull style. If you have a volt meter set it to continuity then connect to your wires of the QS and if it shows continuity that means its a closed switch if it shows nothing that means its a open switch. If you dont have a continuity tester then I would test by set the QS to Closed and start the Bike put it into 1st and hold the clutch in and try and push the shifter down and see if you hear any difference in the engine when you push it down, then change the setting to open and repeat, what you want is that the QS cuts the engine on the upshift not the downshift. This will help you to identify the wrong way. Hope that helps let me know what you find out. Thanks for watching.
Was this really needed? I have a Z900 also, they come with a slipper/assist clutch which by design allows for quick shifting both up & DOWN for a brief moment when ever the clutch experiences differential torque ( maybe 1-5% less throttle) between the engine and the clutch. Honestly I'm surprised you haven't noticed it even by accident. for this bike specifically it'd be difficult to even tell that a quickshift circuit is working because the clutch can and will do it on its own, it's written in the owners manual.
Clutch less shifting has been around for a long time, you can definitely master it but it does take practice, I have heard that it can cause issues with your gears and I have also heard that it wont hurt your gears. Thanks for Watching.
@@SimpleSimon you’re still clutchless shifting with this bullshit too though. Only difference is you’re depending on electronics to cut the power between shifts for you instead of your right hand. So any potential damage to the transmission (there is none) would be applicable either way.
The Dynojet Quickshifter does need the Power commander. The Healtech quickshifter is a standalone system that does work very well. I would go with the Healtech if you dont need/want a Power Commander.
too much work. the z900 is perfect the way it is. if anything flash the ECU and add a aftermarket full system. but to each its own. love the video tho pretty cool
