1. You are in first gear, taking it to your favorite shift RPM.
2. Once you reach this RPM, depress the clutch.
3. Shift into second.
(2 & 3 can be done lightning quick)
4. "The wait". I judge it based on my body's movement. Visualize your pelvis as the axis....when the rearward pressure of acceleration leaves your body and you feel as if you can naturally lean forward at the waist.....this is the shift point.
5. Shift into second.

Alright well #3 and #5 are the same which confuses me... for #3 do you mean pull the lever towards the second gear position, and then for #5 let it slip/glide fully in? That's the only part I don't understand, thanks!
