RICKYD: I am sorry if I made you mad or offended you in anyway, It was not intended. I was just speaking my opinion on the subject like everyone else, Sorry if I got away from your original question in anyway also, Now I have a question. Ok say I am riding in 4th gear and come up to a turn and pull the clutch in and downshift to 3rd gear and let out the clutch,You know the bike slows down and the rpms go up some, Does this mess anything up? Sometimes I will be in say 4th gear and pull clutch in and downshift to 2nd and then let out the clutch and it will slow the bike down that way I don't have to concentrate on using my brakes as much on the slippery dirt, Does this hurt anything at all?
ATC3434:And I always give the motor a quick blip when downshifting, instead of letting the next lower gear speed it up. I think that saves a lot of tranny wear. Just my $.02
Is that what ATC3434 is talking about causing Tranny wear? Sorry if I sound arrogant, Again I am sorry to RICKYD for any misunderstaning, Happy Riding,Matt
