Anyone willing to experiment? Go 55mph in 4th gear, then pull in the clutch and let the RPMs drop to idle, then click down twice to 2nd gear and pop the clutch out as fast as you can. I think 55mph in 2nd gear is pretty close to redline.

I doubt there the slipper clutch in our 300 is capable of slipping from 1300rpm to 12,000rpm without transferring some of that resistance to the rear tire.

Would a higher quality slipper clutch on SS bikes be able to handle that much abuse?
6th to 2nd from 60 to 25-30, Back end skids around a little, but not too crazy though. I have tried it multiple times, its kinda fun. I have done it unintentionally on the ZX6R, but the slipper is there for a reason.
