To activate and deactivate qs mode. Use clutch shift to 2nd gear. 1. Key to off 2. Clutch to 3rd gear and hold clutch and hold shift up 3. Turn key to on if it fails repeat but my 2018 shifts this way.
Had the same issue when programming quick shifter and gotta say it’s definitely the amount of pressure being pushed on the shifter i spent a whole hour rechecking my work🧐🤦♂️
Hi man, great video, used it to install mine.. My rod came off while riding at the track this past weekend, now I'm trying to find a small rod to replace it , do you mind sharing the measurements of just the small rod that came with the quickshifter..
I just installed mine and idk if it’s normal but the shifter feel got a lot stiffer than it used to be. Idk if that’s supposed to feel like, but it takes a lot more pressure to shift than it did before
What are the measurements on this? Can’t find anything online. Was riding today and I felt the shift rod move, nuts were loose. Having a hard time getting it adjusted correctly 🤦♂️.
They are in the instructions that come with the shifter. I can’t remember where I put mine. You might be able to ask the service department at the dealer.
No worries! So you operate it when you are on the throttle. You only shift into the next gear using the shifter and no clutch. The harness connects to your ECU or for others the spark plug connectors. It cuts spark for certain amount of milliseconds while shifting. Sort of allows to take a load off of the engine while shifting. That’s sort of the basics of how a quickshifter works.
That fact that I just bought my bike a month ago..... and didn’t realize it came with a quick shifter has me STOKED ASF.... like yoooo I really didn’t know it had one already installed... I’m watching this like “WAIT A GOTDAMN MINUTE” then im looking at my bike like YOOOOOOOOO😯😯😯🤯🤯🤯 LETS GET IT
Whats´up bro; i have a question. Don´t you had some trouble with the quickshifter? I have the same bike, and the last days i felt the quickshifter different, it doesn´t works good like before, sometimes i can´t change gears , now is very harsh, it seems like it gets stuck or something. If you could help me, i would apreciatte so much bro. Regards!!!
Hey! No I’ve had mine on for a while now and it still works just fine. Have you inspected the hardware to make sure everything is tight? Also is you chain loose? I’ve heard that can affect quickshifters.
@@itsmeericb I haven't checked either of those two things, but I think the hardware is fine, at least the quickshifter icon is on, but maybe the string is the problem; A few days ago I changed tires and when removing the chain it may have been loose. I´ll check that; thanks a lot my friend. When i can resolve it, i´ll tell you. Regards and great channell
I installed this quick shifter on my bike and now it won’t start. I read that if the measurement aren’t correct and the shifter isn’t in the right spot it won’t start. I’ve check every measurement 10 times and they all seem to be right. Do you know what it could be. Could you share all of your measurements please?
That’s odd that your bike won’t start due to the quickshifter. It should start regardless. 🤔 Also I don’t have this bike anymore and made this video a long time ago so I don’t remember the measurements. I believe mine was pretty on par to what was in the instructions.
I had the shop install one when I bought it, love them definitely agree. Waiting On my GPR v5 damper it’s spendy but I think it’s gonna be good insurance tho, check in to em if you got time
For some reason I can’t seem to have the correct measurements for mine. I’ve been trying to get it right for a while and I can’t 🥲. Maybe my measurements is not correct.
That is a good question and I actually don’t know if it will. I would assume that it would seeing how it’s the Yamaha OEM QS. What I mean is the manufacturer made the bike to also go onto the track, so I would think they would allow for GP shift. You may have to do a little digging just to be on the safe side.
@@itsmeericb I’ve been digging, I found GP shift for oem QS but it’s also meant for the woodcraft rearsets so idk. My QS should be getting in tomorrow sometime
If you have a 2017+ R6 and want a basic quickshifter, this is for you!
this was so helpful! Thank you
if you can find one

So crazy!
Sup Eric 👍🏻 you’re R6 is definitely coming along nicely 🔥 and adding the QS is only gonna make it better nice1 bro 👏🏻
Adam 🇬🇧
Thanks! I’m loving it!
Omg this in deridder Louisiana I use to live here that’s wild and wow I use to live in green acres also
Haha! Small world!
Thanks a lot for this bruv! Looking to install on my 2018
You’ll like it! 👍
@@itsmeericb quick question though. Do you have to let go of the throttle when shifting?
@@idolkidd nope!
what sliders do you have?
Brand called OES
Hi man, great video, used it to install mine.. My rod came off while riding at the track this past weekend, now I'm trying to find a small rod to replace it , do you mind sharing the measurements of just the small rod that came with the quickshifter..
I want to say the rod itself is about 4.5 inches.
@@itsmeericb Thanks, this is useful.
Hey eric, can you downshift as well without using the clutch?
Not with this quickshifter.
@@itsmeericb many thanks brother
I just installed mine and idk if it’s normal but the shifter feel got a lot stiffer than it used to be. Idk if that’s supposed to feel like, but it takes a lot more pressure to shift than it did before
It’s been a while since I’ve ridden the R6 but I don’t remember the feel being stiff. Felt the same as it did stock.
2017 is without QS? I have 2018 and i bought bike with QS already installed...
Yes they do not come with them. The dealer probably had it installed on yours.
Is it up down or down up shift?
Just up
What are the measurements on this? Can’t find anything online. Was riding today and I felt the shift rod move, nuts were loose. Having a hard time getting it adjusted correctly 🤦♂️.

I’ll have to do that. Bike came with the QS installed. I have no clue what they are supposed to be
@@guidry840 Ahhh gotcha. Yeah that’s gonna be your best bet.
Wait so how does a quick shifter work? Sorry I’m new to riding

i hear a lot of people say the r6 hurts their back, what do you think?
Just depends on the person. After an hour of riding I take a break. It has an aggressive seating position for the track.
it helps you build core muscles. it's a complete work out.
Motonosity had similar issue.....
Yes and I watched his video! I saw a couple others and it seems to be a programming issue across the board. Just my thoughts. 🤷♂️
Glad you got it working👍
@@jasonscott8900 Thanks!
@@itsmeericb hey bro.. I have been trying to buy one since last year mind sharing where you found yours?
@@odainsmith4708 Texas!
Can you not downshift with it?:) thanks!
You can’t quickshift down, only up.
how do i get the old shifter off it’s stuck ?
As in the spline is stuck? (The top part that looks like a gear)
thank you brother also is it suppose to have some swivel play ? feel like mines loseish
and i can’t shift into 3rd gear nothing past 2nd
@@Mario-tq9pi Really? Oh wow, I’m not sure about that. What gear did you have it in when you took the original off?
@@Mario-tq9pi yes there should be some play in the ball joints.
What replacement battery is that?
It's just a standard battery. Came in the bike when I got it. I plan to upgrade to a lithium battery soon.
@@itsmeericb what's the model on it if you don't mind?
Decat and ECU flash , you'll have a brand new bike.

lol when i first hit 600 miles on my 2020 r6 i hit a screw in my back tire lol
Man that sucks! Lol
Yes sirrr keep it coming
Are those pegs on the side for if you drop your bike?
Yes
Good info bro! That bike is sweet...cant wait to see it in person! Ive also got a quickshifter coming 👀
Heck yeah! You doing something like a Translogic?
You have an absolute beauty, ride safe and god bless

Nice! I plan to get one of those next! Probably after a few more power upgrades and pitbull restraint system for my trailer.

How far off is it? What are you using to measure?
@@itsmeericb I’m not sure if I’m being totally Honest. I was using a ruler 📏 to measure it but I don’t think that’s the correct tool for it.
@@twowheelsr6 If it’s in MM you should be fine.
@@itsmeericb I don’t think it was. I think I might need to get me a caliper tool like the one you used to measure it.
Will this factory QS work with GP shift or would I have to buy something else for it to work with GP shift?
