What are people's opinions of the quickshifter??
Whilst my bike is still pretty new (just at 1000km, first service imminent), I find that especially downshifting it is often obstructive & sometimes (especially 5 - 4 & 3 - 2), just plain impossible.
Clearly I will get them to have a look at the service, but just wondered if this is typical, or my bike has an issue.
Had the same system on a previous BMW (2016 R1200RS), and it generally worked fine & nicely 'blipped' the throttle on downshifts, which my Duke generally doesn't. Whilst far from a problem I'm back to the clutch at the moment, but missing this aspect of 'fun-factor'!!
