New Hayabusa queries

I only use QS when I'm getting down or a smackdown with someone, otherwise, I use the clutch. But yes it's a little clunky, but it's about the same as my 2017 BMW1000RR.

Yea, I remember my 2017 S1000RR feeling harsh at times. I was auto-blipping on the Busa a lot today, but I'm starting to hate the way it feels - very harsh, makes a decent "clunk!", although it shifts into gear fine, even 2 to 1, and doesn't unsettle the bike. QS going up - utterly sublime. I'm going to play with my technique and try and nail it so it doesn't make that horrid clunk sound, but so far I'm hesitating with the auto-blipper because it feels like the gearbox is getting an utter hammering. On my Super Duke R there was a certain threshold where it would be amazing, but outside that it felt like the gearbox was going to detonate. Perhaps the Busa is like that.

replying to myself because I just watched this vid on YouTube. Excellent rider by the way, and you can clearly hear the clunks on the blipper. So, it seems, all is well with mine because that's how mine sounds.

Lots of posts here on the Gen3 quickshifter being junk.
With Woolrich parts being the only fix.
