I have once rebuild that weak gearbox (2nd gear),even I used the clutch.
And now I'm extra careful with using clutch, even I have  under cut gears (5°) and Busas heavy duty parts in gearbox.

It's a bit different thing if you use a Quick shifter, it will cut your ignition for millisecond(?) while you are shifting,
But then you should not use more than 4.5° undercut...

I always clutch the HD though, only 1/2" or so of lever travel but just enough to unload things so it's smooth. Again a full declutch isn't as smooth for me.

Pretty much sums up how I use the clutch  :onya:
I think the slower I'm going the more clutch I use.
Another great day on the right side of the grass.😎

Agree,i always clutch but hardly touch it, just habit, I doubt it breaks connection much at all. Ill take notice and report back.
