this my friend is easy simply drive as usual but in stead of clutching then shirting into gear just take your foot off the throtle pull it out of gear and try not to ram it straight in there ;) takes a bit of time to perfect this btw dont try to 3rd to 2nd or 5th to 4fth you get the idear , all you have to do is get the engine at just the right speed rev wise and it will go straght in if you dont you'll be picking gear teeth up off the road all day hope this helps
Slowly and if you are good you can change gears without using the clutch. Takes a little practice and a good ear or feel for when the engie is running at the speed to change without the clutch.
Manual transmission is a stick shift. You have to manually change the gears using the shifter and the clutch.
the same way as almost any other bike. Pull in the clutch using your left hand and push the Baer shift lever up or down using your left foot.
Best way is to just float the gears - shift without using the clutch. However, if you do this wrong, you'll destroy your transmission. If you use the clutch when shifting, firstly, you double clutch - try shifting it like a car transmission, and you destroy the transmission. If you don't know how to do this, go to a truck driving school. When you shift, only push in the clutch far enough to disengage the transmission - don't go all the way to the floor with it, or else you'll wear out the clutch break. Don't roll out of gear with the clutch depressed.
Perhaps you are not easing off on the accelerator when using the clutch. you would get this from a worn clutch .
You change the gears using your gear lever (obviously). On almost any bike out there you upshift by pushing the lever up and downshift by tapping it down, this also makes sense, doesn't it? Easy to remember... The actual shifting goes like this: Step1: Roll back on the throttle Step2: Pull in the clutch Step3: Shift Step4: Release the clutch (gently) Step5: Power up (also gently) Some people might say things like : "You can get from 3rd to 4th without using clutch" or "you can downshift without using clutch" etc... Well, if you're not using clutch you risk damaging your gearbox which is quite expensive to repair. these features vary on different bikes so unless that person has a bike just like yours, don't do it!
If it is an eight speed in a truck, chances are it is a big rig of some sort. Push the clutch in and put the shifter in first gear. Slowly let off the clutch until the truck starts to move. Speed up until it feels like you need to shift again. You can slip the shifter out of first and into second without using the clutch if you are quick and get the feel of the engine RPMs. If you want to use the clutch you will need to double clutch. Push the clutch in to shift from first to neutral. Now let the clutch out so the engine and transmission gears start turning at the same speed. Now, quickly clutch again and shift into the next gear. let off the clutch and accelerate again. If you have a four speed with a two speed rear end there will be a switch on the shifter. Shift through the first four gears normally, then flip the switch an go back to 1st, which will become 5th gear with the axle in high range. To down shift you should double clutch too. First, clutch to shift into neutral. Let off the clutch and rev up the engine so the RPMs are correct for the vehicle speed and the next gear you want to shift into. Now clutch again and downshift. When you let off the clutch the engine, which can only turn so fast, will pull the truck speed down. You can give the engine some throttle and slowly back off so the engine braking isn't so rough or sudden. Good Luck!
Relax. It's normal. Go enjoy!
Yes but you need to match engine rpm with drive rpm in order to do so. Look up the term Double Clutch for more info.
Same as any other motorcycle, using the clutch and shift with your left foot.
IMO also the fact is yes it is better than conventional manual, the paddle shifters behind the wheel to change gears & it's clutch less. It has a robotized clutch & the shifting are much quicker/faster than with stick shift manual. Even the best/experienced driver can't change gears as fast using clutch as the semi auto. Semi auto changes gears faster will result with better acceleration & has the advantage in races. They really benefits for F1 cars & now for many exotic cars.
Well, it can't have one of each, but it can have one that combines their features. I know I have seen a car advertised in last few years that you can run through the gears if you want or just let it operate automatically, but Plymouth offered an auto-shift transmission back in the late 1930s/early 1940s. If you left it in high gear, it would shift back to low when the vehicle stopped and you could up-shift without using the clutch (but not down-shift).
