Shift without clutch.... much?
#3
I clutch the 1-2 and all downshifts; everything else is clutchless. I've done the same on all my bikes and I've never had a problem on any bike I've done this with, including the CB.

As for why, I find it smoother and much faster/lower effort. Some people don't and think it hurts the gearbox, I can respect that too.

** caution, this topic ranks up there with oil threads in terms of debate it inspires.
