That depends a lot on where your hand is in the first place.

Here is a little trick to try when shifting

When using 1st and 2nd gear, rotate your hand to the right so your thumb is on the shifter

3rd and 4th rotate your hand back so your palm is directly on top of the shifter, 3rd and 4th do not need any lateral movement just forward and back.

5th and 6th twist your hand and thumb down.

Do this all the time it will be automatic after a while.

I started doing this after a almost money shift at VIR went from 5th at 127 MPH to 6th and found 4th instead. I replaced the spring retainers shortly after that.


George taught me this many moons ago and I never hit the easy 3rd to 2nd money shift.

If I'm going to screw up an engine, none of this half arsed stuff. Gangnam style!
