Ok, as the title has anyone used the "Healtech quickshifter easy"?? Looks good and some nifty features at that price, ie blue tooth, variable times vs revs? What does everyone think??
Or should I stay with usual ie HM, Translogic??

I wouldn't trust quick shifters.
They work but you will be stripping cogs in the gearboxes.
They shift so fast and the power is on full then wacks into the next gear with full force and so on and so forth.
Those cogs will eventually start wearing or snapping teeth.
Even clutch less upshifts are better as you are off the power when changing gears.

Not sure about the comments above. The idea is that the qs cuts the ignition and takes the load of the gearbox.
I've got one of their fi tuners on a gsxr seems like a nice unit and they were helpful and knowledgeable when I contacted them with questions.
I think their qs is new so not many people likely to have it yet.
The Bluetooth sounds interesting. I'm guessing its a strain gauge system but couldn't see that stated outright. IMO it needs to be a strain gauge and not micro switch to be worth having.
Phone them up and have a chat, they are decent sounding guys.

Mine has one fitted and has done 20k miles with no issues at all.

Be interesting to see how the sensor works given how it looks to be attached. the bluetooth connection looks nice as well. a friend has the latest HM unit and configuration is a bit of a mission.

t.As has already been pointed out, using a properly set up, ignition kill shifter will prolong the life of a properly ridden bikes gearbox....
What he propbably said is that certain quickshifters, such as dynojet fuel cut ones, will destroy a gearbox pretty rapidly.

Do you have a link to that? Be interesting to see what people think of it.I'm close to buying a HM shifter but this looks good price wise if it works well.
