So I don't know about you, but when I'm out on the back roads and have to come to a stop for a stop sign, traffic light, or other reason I like to blast off back to cruising speed in the lowest gear available to me. But the one thing that's been nagging at me ever since I've had a bike that can hit most back road speed limits in 1st gear is that now I'm travelling +80km/h and would suddenly like to be cruising in 6th. I guess this question could also apply to any vehicle with a manual sequential tranny, but what's the most graceful way to quickly shift through my remaining 4 to 5 gears? Right now I just quickly shift through each of them, taking my time to pull in and let out the clutch for each shift, but it's not particularly smooth.
Any tips? Anyone do anything different? Anyone know what I'm talking about?
