Yamahdan Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Hi all, Have been looking around for a few bits to buy once the DT is built, seen and heard a lot about these but wondering if anyone has had first hand experience with them.. apparently it allows you to keep the throttle held open and change up through the gears.. I would like some more info because they're over £200 and if it don't work as promised then its a lot down the tube.. This is the only place I can find them: https://www.cisport.co.uk/Product-Detail_/pg%5Fbp%5Fcle%5Fdep/CDASC23B Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator DirtyDT Posted August 30, 2013 Moderator Share Posted August 30, 2013 Personally I would spend the £200 on something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Cynic Posted August 30, 2013 Moderator Share Posted August 30, 2013 Spend it on a rider training day. Make you much quicker than that will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhat250 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Al it does is cut the spark as you select gear. that drops the drive on gearshaft , allowing the gearchange. just change up without clutch, its quick enuff, mind close throttle tho...

Tommy xs Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 £200 + the damaged it could do if it doesn't work right, just not worth the hassle IMO but if you do decide to go with it. Do a thead in reviews so others don't make the same mistake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dt502001 Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Holy duck have you never hear of clutchless shifiting,,,,load shifter,blip throttle,bang you have the next gear,no need for this crap. As Cynic said spend a day on riding skills and keep the rest for beer ,,,,at the end of the day you will be better off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I know about clutchless change, I've ridden all of my mx bikes like it and the DT was no different, just wondered how much difference this thing would make...

dt502001 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 The difference it would make IMO would be alot of unintentional up shifts if you wear mx boots,accidentaly tap the shifter and you get a up shift you didn't want or worse a half shift and bugger the tranny, no way I would put that on my dirt bike,now if I were drag racing the bandit and looking to shave a few thou of a second off my time then I might try one,but then I think I would stick with what I know works and go with a air shifter or a selonoide e shifter and press the button for shifts and let the air shifter do all the work.If the Top fuel bikes and indy cars can use them with proven success then you know it works. That thing look's cheap and hookey to me,, bent far to many shifter's MXXING to trust that to get me to the finnish line without breaking.or cutting out the ignition so I couldn't even finnsh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
