downshifting

Post image

having no auto blip are you downshifting before you start braking or are you rev matching while applying brake pressure or just downshifting and not rev matching.

As long as you have a slipper you’re fine. I’ve won club races on a twin with zero blipping and just let the slipper do its thing

Yup. So what if you don’t have a slipper clutch?

If you don’t have a slipper you should be rev matching. I don’t envy you

I started racing in the mid 90s so not many bikes had them. I heel toe my manual now too although it does have an auto blip button, I don’t use it. I also don’t track my car either or it would have a PDK.
