If you lose count and go all the way to 1st instead of 2nd at speed, the slipper ain't necessarily gonna save the engine. It might or might not save you from losing the rear.

I put a Healtec indicator on my R6. I don't look at it every time... only when I'm not 100% sure what gear I'm in.

It's simply a peripheral-vision assist, like a shift light. You can make the same negative case for shift lights... why bother when you have a tach?
