GP Shift Po5 ddll

[Classax]

Like all motorcycles the RX comes with standard 1 down 5 up shifting from the factory. Unlike the RS, in order to reverse the shift pattern one must obtain a GP shift kit instead of just flipping the shift knuckle 180 degrees. After installing the RS linkage ( which requires trimming of the belly pan) I decided to try GP shift for the first time and find I LOVE IT, much more natural to me. Among other things I find the level of effort with RS kit installed is lower even though the through range is longer. The RX tranny is actually very smooth! So the question how many RX guys have or are planning to convert to GP shift?


P.S. this bike was made to have a quickshifter!!!

What, in total, with quick shifter did it all set you back?

[Classax]

Check with Ed at AF1 racing for a quote on the RS shifter parts. The Quick shifter sensor requires the use of a race ECU to work. The sensor and rod will run about $200 (USD). All money well spent, they bike is so easy to ride fast. Part of EBR's problem is with so few customers its hard to focus on which aftermarket products. For instance they were under the impression that only racers ( which I am NOT) were looking for the GP shift pattern when in fact the only reason I have never tried it before is because it always required rear sets to do on my previous bikes. I actually LOVE it!

I think it's much easier to hit gears quickly with GP shift!

[Von]

Very good info!

I have considered flipping the RS, but the rest of them are conventional and old people can't remember what they are supposed to be doing.

a proper GP-QS systsem is coming for the RX and SX.

The 1125 kit could be used, but the bellypan will have to be modified.

The 1190 kit will include a quickshifter and have part number N1620A.14BX.
MSRP will be $399.99. In order for the QS to function, the bike must have a race ECM from either of the exhaust kits (tips or HMF)

We expect this to be available within 30-45 days.

Is EBR releasing a quick shifter without converting to GP?

Got one on order.

I'd like to know this too.

[Ed / AF1 Racing]

not yet for the regular shift. They said after the GP shift kit.

If you already have a RACE ecu (from tips kit, or HMF exh) the feaure is already active, just needs linkage and a 2-wire sensor.

[dmhines]

I know the DynoJet one will work now .. but I was hoping EBR comes out with something a little more OEM looking than using a generic sensor with generic linkage and brackets.

[dmhines]

I'm sure EBR could design a new shifter and linkage similar to the BMW S1000RR for Standard shift pattern.

I've never tried a GP shift, and honestly, after 34 years of riding, I'm afraid I'd have trouble adapting. And it makes me cringe to think what would happen the first time I tried for an upshift that was really a downshift.

[EBRRider]

Will somebody share what a pic of a EBR quick shift looks like ? I understand Dean was lucky enough to get the last one from ERB , So that being said, What is my best option for a quick shift ?

[mackja]

Here is an option, I have made up 3 sets and all have worked great. Use gp shift kit from Precision Engineering https://www.preeng.com/xcart/Buell-1125R-GP-Shift-Kit.html, order a Annitori 115mm shift rod and Dynojet pull switch. This will work for GP Shift set up. Will require some modification as the shift kit is standard threads and the shift rod and switch are metric.

Sweet thx !

[Ace117]

Here is the EBR GP set up. Its awesome! works best above 7k, low speed quick shift is a no go though. EBR said it was intended for agresive riding and that lowspeed shifting should still be done with the clutch.

[EBRRider]

Very nice !! I like this better. Thx

Precision Engineering no longer carries those GP shifters.
I wish I could source that EBR pedal. I had to fashion mine from Suzuki parts...

Which Suzuki parts did you use? I've been searching for a couple days how to make my RX reverse shift and have been hitting a lot of roadblocks. I don't care too much about any quick shift function, just really want to have the reverse shift pattern.

I used a Suzuki Bandit pedal. I got this one from Outlaw racing. The shift knuckle is for a Kawasaki. The linkage is Annitori cut down to the length I needed... and bearings, spacers (actually... couldn't find the right spacer so I used a valve retainer I had from a rebuild) and a bolt to connect to the rearsets.

[Discman7374]

I see. Thanks for the info!

[Cooter]

The hook up is the same as the DDFI-3 Buells, as long as you have the Race ECM? Ground Pin #3 in the grey plug?
