Anyone know if power commander makes a quick shifter that will work with an '06 S2R 800 w/ a PCIII? I called power commander and was told that they are phasing out the PCIII and that there is no quick shifter specific to my bike but I think they are wrong.  I've always wanted a quick shifter  Evil

Try Yoyodyne for stand alone speed shifters.

By "stand alone" you mean it doesn't plug into the PCIII ?

Ducati has one for your bike (as I'm sure others do as well), but I don't know if/how it works if there's a PCIII.

Well, just got off the phone with PC.  So since they don't have a kit for my specific bike I could either use the linear sensor which I wouldn't want b/c it would be bulky and ugly or I could use the shift rod sensor which is much cleaner looking.  The problem is that they don't have a shift rod sensor kit for my specific bike I would have to figure everything out myself, like this guy: http://www.ducati.ms/forums/77-sport-classic/82658-dynojet-quick-shifter-waspmobile-excellent.html

So just a matter of finding a shorter shift rod...

Iirc, Yoyodyne had shifters available that used sensor tech that worked off the shifter lever hardware. Worth at least taking a look.

I measure the shift rod sensor to be around 46 Mm.



PowerCommander has a selection of rods. The rods can be shortened and/or combined as needed. This was the route I had to take because I have aftermarket rear sets which meant that the kit they specify for my bike would not fit.

Who sez I don't already know how to do clutchless upshifts? Been doing it for a loong time. In fact I still do it when the mood strikes me and the revs are below 5000.

Now my turn for a question. Have you ridden a bike with a quickshifter? If not, you might be in for a surprise. I wouldn't call it amazing but it makes for a highly significant improvement in acceleration. The downside is that you could exceed your grin limit.  Grin
