Yes! lol How is that for a short and sweet response.

Just remember once you master the throttle and clutch it is a very very very quick action.

1. Close throttle
2. While pulling in clutch
3. Shift up or down
4. Release clutch smoothly
5. While adding throttle again

This all happens in the blink of an eye once you get used to it.

I suggest a “rev match” you pull the clutch in, just BARELY open the throttle kick down release clutch with throttle slowly closing. This will prevent the bike from surging. Don’t do this until your precise with the controls. – In that case you should be braking and pulling the clutch in when the rpms are low and holding till you stop.
