Whilst blipping can seem more complicated at first than just slamming on the anchors, after a while it does become very natural and I think it makes for smoother riding in the road.

There should be no sliding of the rear wheel as speed is being removed by the brakes so that when the clutch is released after each gear change the engine does add to the braking overall but not in a destabilising manner. mattSV wrote: Quote:
It can be argued that a slipper clutch covers up for bad technique from riders as well as the benefit of being able to do multiple down shifts. ![]() |

That explains why the SV1000 I rode felt a bit odd when changing down gears sharply.

As mentioned before this method is more likely to be used in an emergency stop situation so where is the built in delay there? ![]() |
