Picked her up, short review :)

As Larry said, must be bike specific since I can do it at any rpm, even idling in any gear! Been using it since day one in all gears, all speeds, and all rpms and never had one issue of false neutral or jumping back down a gear - which can scare the hell outta ya too. Mention this during your free service. :D

Just spoke my dealer as he came to pick her up.
He's going to give it a check, maybe finetuning or give it a reset.
Also gonna replace the carbon tankpad as i noticed while cleaning the bike, the lower part was beginning to come off.
Seems like it are 2 layers, one with dual sided adhessive tape and a carbon layer on top.

Good deal...please keep us posted if you can. :cool:
 
Hey Glad you love that bike and thanks for your review.

I use the quickshift all the time below 6000 and have never once hit a false neutral.

I am in the keep it below 6000rpm till 1000k run in style as per book. Although have been over 6000 couple of times passing trucks etc. Only momentarily though.

I rode a k1300S recently and the QS on the Panigale is a lot smoother than on the beemer.
 
You may want to check page 189 of your manual (well, the Euro issue anyway):

From 1000 - 2500km

At this point, you can squeeze more some power out of your engine. However, never exceed 7000rpm.
 
Spoke my dealer, bike is ready, i will pick it up as he will adjust the lever to my foot.
QS is fine, so probably cause of my sasquatch feet i don't pull the lever high enough.
Will let you guys know after some testing :)

Those pages are torn out of the manual and burned inside the Termi muflers :D
 
OK dealer lowered my shiftlever.
Because i swift with the middle of my foot instead of my toes it seems like i had to raise my toes way up to get a decent shift.
On the way home had no problems with the qs, so far so good.
Gonna take her out for a day of riding with some friends tomorrow and will report back.
btw now i twist the throttle as it's intend to, where the hell do we have 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th gear for ?! :D
This thing is a jet on wheels !!
