    Are quick shifters really worth it on the road?
    When I'm giving it some I shift up without clutching and that seems quick enough.
    Ok fair enough on the track, but £375 I couldn't justify that :eek:

    Just fitted a HM shifter to the SP which I got from Arthur (Top man) for £383 delivery with rod.
    All plug and play with 1 earth lead to fit in a suitable place on the engine. Easy to setup too with small button on back of control unit, highly recommended.

    I love my HM plus! and the GP more ;) Ha Ha, road or race it's a great bit of kit, I think road wise and smiles per mile it's worth every penny, if you question why you need one on the road I'd also question why we bother with 160bhp on the road no? Price wise they are £375 plus or minus a few quid (depending on how they get sent, I had one go missing so now they are all sent insured and it cost me a little more :( ) anyway I do include a free shift rod to get people going and offer support too as most already know. I'd like to say thanks to all who have purchased them from me, like HM I take great pride in offering. good service and the best price I can do at the time, I hope all are happy with them! I truly love the HM and the team behind them! :)

    I didn't buy a 160bhp bike so I can ride on the road like im Marquez. :D Too many pot holes and coppers for that :D

    I like knowing i can overtake anything in any gear without any effort.

    Ah what the hell, im moaning because i cant afford one

    Yeah I know what you mean, I only ever rip though the gears up to 70 ;) on the road, and I'm only a Sunday rider myself, but something about holding the throttle pinned right back and shifting through the gears!

    My RR7 with the GP shifter is SO slick you can hardly hear if it changed gear!


    Oh and man, don't get me started on the road conditions!!!!
