[QUOTE="paste007, post: 31444, member: 683"] When asked about the electronic shifting, the rep said that it was a simple pattern of neutral on the bottom, moving up through the 5 gears. No need to go into neutal, as in first gear, the bike remains motionless until the throttle is utilized. Downshifting (or upshifting) is sequential. Sounded pretty slick, but that first ride, would (will-?) be very interesting. Overall, came away very impressed. Had a buddy (Harley rider) with me and found his observations of the show at Alice's interesting. He noted that "all of the questions involved technical issues and various features of the bike's performance" and that if it'd been a Harley show, that instead of the factory rep standing there (answering questions), that there would have been a large breasted women in a Harley t-shirt standing by the bike. Yamaha "Performance" versus "the HD experience", a pretty clear definition of the consumer's choices. [/QUOTE]
