Motorcycle transmissions are new to me but I'm finding they like it best when you treat them like any close ration transmission; don't lug them down (e.g.; short shift and end up in 6th and only be doing 25 mph) and don't expect to go from "high" gear to first at a dead stop without a little coaxing.

I didn't have enough experience when I was riding my '01 to take really wring it out, and my new lady doesn't have enough miles on it yet to really push it, but both of them do love it when I wind them up in each gear - love to listen to the lady sing
