Looking for Quick Shifter recommendation for 2008+ Monster 696

[desmotesta]

Hello all

I am looking for a quick shifter for my 2009 Monster 696

I am looking for feedback on Bazzaz Quick shifter, Translogic QS and Heal-tech unit

Please share any experiences you may have on any one of the three

Thank you

I've not ridden a Duc with a quick-shift, but I rarely use the clutch on any bike for on the move shifting. I test-rode a BMW K1300 that had quick shift as a stock option...

IMHO, on the street, little difference other than training yourself not to touch the shifter unless you mean to shift.

After owning the 1199 Panigale for a year, I can say that I am completely spoiled. Not only are the shifts almost seamless, once it becomes second nature using clutch for upshifting seems like a chore..

Its not something I can't live without, but for around $400-$500, I think its a worth while investment especially given the fact that 90% of my street  riding is around town and commuting to work.

If the dealer or a shop is installing it, maybe get what they are comfortable working on...

Follow up..

well it looks like the Heal Tech unit is by far the cheapest

I am awaiting an email confirmation from them, but looks like their unit is easiest to instal (bazaaz unit requires splice in ignition coil cable, I am not a big fan of that)

Hmm, wow - I'm a bit surprised to see that the Bazazz unit is using some sort of tap set up.

If you look at their full blow, all the goodies unit, Z-Fi TC, that uses proper terminals that you insert between the stock coil and harness - like wise for the harness and injectors.

Of course it's ~$300 more. But your are picking up the fuel adjustment capability and 'Traction Control'
