Quick Shifter ECU: components and what to know

Know your Quickshifter
The Quickshifter
This component is the ECU or the `brains' of the operation. Essentially the quickshifter is looking for a signal from the sensor to instruct the quickshifter to execute the interrupt which allows the next gear to be selected. Other quickshifters simply `ground' either the fuel injector signal wire or the ignition coil signal wire or interrupt the positive supply to all the coils/injectors at once. These wires have sensitive electronics attached to the ends of the wires at the bikes OEM ECU and therefore Translogic avoids this kind of interrupt as it can only be detrimental to the well being of the OEM ECU as well as flagging up gauge warning lights and fault codes within the OEM ECU. Translogic quickshifters actually interrupt the signal travelling down these wires and then simulate a signal back to the OEM ECU so it never sees that the wire/signals have been interrupted so there won't be any fault codes recorded in the OEM ECU when you have you next engine service. Translogic quickshifters provide the added benefits of our unique Intellishift^TMand AST (Adaptive Shift Technology). Where other quickshifters simply just interrupt the whole engine at once which results in `snatchy' gear shifts at lower engine RPMs a Translogic quickshifter is usable at any RPM as it interrupts in a progressive manner and reapplies the power to the engine gradually constantly adapting to the engines requirements eliminated harsh gear shifts which could be harmful to your transmission. Ask any Translogic quickshifter owner who has used another brand of quickshifter and they'll all tell you there's a huge difference in the `feel' and gearshift transition between our advanced quickshifters and lesser products. Seamless gearshifts even while cranked over on the tyres edge are standard with Translogic quickshifters giving you total confidence. Our quickshifters not only use the highest quality harness materials they feature Plug & Play connectors as standard without any additional costs. The hardest part of installing a Translogic quickshifter is stripping parts away on the machine to gain access to the ignition coils, once done our quick shifter systems can be fitted in minutes.

Get on the motorcycle.
Start the engine in neutral.
Squeeze the clutch lever with your left hand all the way to the grip.
Place your left foot on the gear shifter and kick straight down to first gear.
Give a little throttle with your right hand. Don't race the engine.
Slowly release the clutch with your left hand while maintaining engine speed with your right hand on the throttle.
Balance the bike and move off slowly.
After you are moving and balanced, put your left toe under the gear shifter.
Squeeze the clutch and release tension on the throttle a little.
Smartly kick upward with your toe on the bottom of the gear shifter. You are now in second gear.
Release the clutch smoothly and simultaneously apply more throttle.
As you gain more speed, repeat the above steps for third, fourth, and fifth gears.
Downshifting is done similarly except you sharply kick down on the gear shifter to go to the next lower gear.
As you come to a stop, squeeze the clutch and kick down on the gear shifter, one gear at a time, timing it so you are in first gear as you stop.

Practice use of the clutch and throttle together so as not to stall the engine.
If you should stall the engine, make sure you have the front wheel straight ahead. Otherwise, you will fall.
Practice getting the gear shifter into neutral while stopped. Neutral is between first and second gear.

The GDU offers visual confirmation of gear selection within the transmission. This Ultra-Bright seven segment LED, (Light Emitting Diode). is among the brightest available. This display coupled with the precision Clarex™. smoked black window diffuser produces the highest contrast available for improved day light viewing and exceptional night time clarity. The sensor is the pinnacle of positional monitoring technology and is manufactured to high tolerance specifications allowing repeatability in production to within a measured tolerance of plus or minus 1%.

This Ignition interrupt (quickshifter) is probably the smallest, lightest and most technologically advanced system available. The Ezeshift is manufactured to the highest standard using high tolerance components and latest SMT, (Surface MountTechnology.) The Ezeshift negates the use of the clutch and throttle rolling while making upshifts and is designed to compliment virtually all variants of ignition systems.The Ezeshift System has the added benefit of offering visual confirmation of gear selection within the transmission utilising the GDU. Both the Ezeshift and the Ezeshift System use the same high specification sensor as the GDU.

The Powershift is the first tiptronic gear shift product of its type. This unique linear design allows fitment in confined areas as well as combining incredible power. The Powershift stands apart from its competitors by utilising DC motor and planetary gearbox technology which is then transferred into linear motion. The Powershift ven facilitates manual gear selection when fitted. Gears can be selected both up and down by the touch of a button.

The Powershift is available with a built in Ignition interrupt (quickshifter). This built in feature negates the use of the clutch and throttle rolling while making upshifts and like the Ezeshift is designed to compliment virtually all variants of ignition systems. Like the Ezeshift System the Powershift System also has the added benefit of offering visual
confirmation of gear selection within the transmission system utilising the GDU and sensor.
