Watched your video and had to get the quick shifter for my 2018 AT AS. Installation went smooth, initialization smooth, but it would NOT work! Test ride, adjustment, test ride and nothing. Spent 2 hours on it and got nowhere but frustrated. Then on the last test ride I get a check engine light? Dropped by the local dealer and they found it was throwing a “Bad Clutch Switch Error”... what? Never had an issue before. But bumping the starter in 1st no clutch it lurched forward. The computer thinks the clutch is pulled in when it isn’t which disables the quick shifter!
More investigation at home and the after-market shorter clutch lever’s shape was different where it makes contact with the switch. It was holding the switch on all the time regardless of the lever position. I put the OEM lever back on and test drove. Worked perfectly! Long story short, if it doesn’t work at all but initializes, check your clutch lever and switch!
I also blew it and purchased the $525 with shipping version that says it is for the 2018. What I found is they are all the same but the 2018 comes with the shift foot lever. I could have purchased the 2022 version without the lever for under $200 and used the existing lever. Pins, shifter mechanism, electronics look identical.
The quick shifter is addicting and best upgrade yet! Thanks for the video and keep up the content! 👏
Thank you for sharing your experience, I'm going to pin you comment to the top, maybe it will help other people too 😀👍
and look to purchase an OEM in online Japan, towards Australien prices it is 1/3 cheaper excl shipping
HI, what do you mean with "don't work"? How was the behaviour of the motorcycle? I ask this because I just get the quick shifter and i'm not sure if it is working correctly beause using the cluch is more soft the insert of the gear. thanks in advance
Hi there , was the kit OEM or aftermarket? And what’s the procedure on the dash after installation? Got the kit but I can’t find anywhere
@giuseppespada8395 ciao Giuseppe, the kit is OEM and the procedure on the dash after installation is illustrated from minute 9:51 👍
Hi Albe, I watch a lot of instructional videos. Most contain a lot of waffle. Full credit to you for producing and making this video available. Clear and concise. Well done and thank you.
Thanks Brendan 😀👍
Thanks to your video Albe, it’s given me the confidence to fit a quick shifter to my 2024 AT 1100L. I’ve just ordered one at a mega discount in the UK, so hope to be fitting it asap, when it arrives.
Your video are excellent, very clear and well explained.
Thank you Albe. 👍
Thank you, I'm happy I could help
Thanks for the detailed info
Thank you so much for posting this video! It was incredibly helpful, especially the part about jumping the connector and configuring in the menus. Works perfectly!
No problem Travis 👍
Hell Albe. Thanks for the detailed instructions on how to install the OEM Quick Shifter for the AT 1100. Thanks to you, I was able to install in on my bike. Love your videos. Not only are they very informative, they are quite entertaining as well.
Thanks Emmanuel, I'm happy my videos help, there will be many more. BTW, thanks for joining tge inner circle 😀👍I'll talk to you soon on the discord chat
Saved my life…amazing video Albe, thank you! This was easy.
No problem Al, thanks for watching 😀 👍
Great video, clear camera angles, clear instruction. Great demonstration. That’ll be a sub from me!
Thanks B B 😀👍
Worked as described . Many thanks
thanks, i follow your video and installed the QS, very useful especially the jumper section!
Thanks Rex 😀👍
Fantastic video. I'm sure I wouldn't have been able to fit the quick shifter on my ATAS 2022 without this video. Massive thanks!!!
No problem 😀👍
Fantastic that's my next purchase for sure - cracking video!!!
Thanks man
Thank you for the video! Great work, please keep do it.
Will do YY
Great quality video. You are the best. Thank's!
Thanks tsivu 😀👍
Hey Great Video. Thanks for making it. I love the Africa Twin after years of procrastinating I'm buying one. Now I see how easy this is to set this up BAM!! I'm going to do it. Thanks from Vancouver BC
No problem man, I’m happy this helped you pull the trigger 👍
Wow, What a great video! You my friend deserve more subscriptions! I hope your channel keeps growing. Cheers from Perú 🇵🇪
Thanks Edwin 😀👍
Just installed with the help of this video, Thankyou!
Thank you for watching 😃👍
Great Video, very informative!!
Thank you 😀👍
I knew how to swap everything, but wasn't sure if there was more. Did not realize I would have to set it up and jump those pins. Sick video.
Thanks Patrick 😀👍
Thank so much for your vid I managed to get a shifter half price 2nd hand they wanted £90 to fit it I followed your expert advice and done it myself thank so much
Way to go Martin 👍
Great video with extraordinary detailed guidance to do the job the right way. I’m an instructor and teacher by design and cannot and will not explain a procedure unless the viewers understand it to the “T”. You’ve done a great job. I just subscribed. 👍🏻
Thanks man, really appreciate 👍
Great video well explained . Top Job .
Thank you 😀👍
I could see the smile in your helmet on the test ride ....great video
Thanks, I was smiling, I love the quick shifter
Hello Albe , I have been considering a Honda Africa Twin and a Kawasaki Versys 1000. You passion for the Honda has got me really thinking maybe this is the way for me to go. I have enjoyed your video's on the Africa Twin. I am not much of a mechanic so I really appreciate your step by step installation of the accessories. Looking forward to seeing more !!!
Good day Sir
Thanks Brian, I love my Africa Twin even more so after my 3000 miles round trip to Seattle (first video is coming out Saturday 25. Available now for Patrons 😁) it's a great bike, as always I recommend taking one for a test ride if possible, either way, thank you very much for watching my videos 😀👍
Thanks for the great video!
No problem Andreas 👍
New subscriber. Looking at installing on my 2018 ATAS. I'll stay tuned for your trip to the Northwest.
Thanks Phil, the first episode is coming out Saturday 😀👍
Great video. Greetings from sicily 😊
Ciao Salvo, grazie 😀👍
Thanks for the information - I've installed quickshifter on my own!
Good job 😀👍
@@AlbesADV just finished installing heated grips... 4 hours and a bit more
That is my next add-on for winter 👍
Thanks for the video it really helped… funny thing… I didn’t have a pice of wire to jump my SCP.. I improvised with a tie wrap from a loaf of bread. Stripped the ends and it worked just fine… just want to say thanks
Yeah, I was smiling and nodding yes as I was reading your message, well done 😀👍
Love the Simoncelli hat👌✊
✌️
One of the better technical installs,no jibber jabber ,just straight forward proper editing,so I assume you have the technical manual?
I do, also Honda has installation instructions on line tgat are pretty complete
thank you
I have 2020 1100A AT and will be adding a quick shifter also!
I published this video just in time then, 😀
Bien 👍🏼
In addition to 20 #s saving over the DCT transmission
I lika the vedio a lot!
🤣👍
Nice!
Bonjour de France .
Merci pour la vidéo , tes explications sont claires et plutôt bien détaillées , je vais tenté de le faire sur ma moto , je vais procéder de la même façon , en utilisant un fil pour la prise , si j'ai bien compris il faut shunter le premier et le dernier trou de la fiche le fil vert et le jaune ? Après avoir tout installé et réglé , au besoin , pour pouvoir ajuster les réglages du shifter , faut il de nouveau shunter la fiche ou le réglage se fait simplement au tableau de bord ? Merci pour tes réponses , et encore bravo pour ta vidéo .
Dang!!
Was looking into buying the quick shifter setup for my AT. Now it’s a must.
Nice video Albe !
Where do you ride out of ?
It really is, I'm in southern California, inland empire
After my accident I have purchased another manual Africa Twin, but ES this time (2022) and have to add the quick shifter all over again.. But the gearbox is sweet on this one! Happy days!
Sorry for your accident but congrats on the new bike 👍
Hi,thank very much for your instructive video! It encouraged me to install the QS myself! !
Anyway my understanding of the original instructions by Honda differs at some point a little bit from your description: the 119mm and 131mm markers are exactly the space! between which the little rubber clamp has to be placed and fixated by the isolation tape. The clip with the snap fastener has to be wrapped around the rubber clamp before being fixated at the bike frame - the clamp and the tape obviously serving as some kind of protection for the cable. In the video the rubber clamp and the clip to fix at the frame at least seem to be installed at separate places, the clamp with the tape essentially being without function(?)
The 185mmmarker is reserved for the cable binder to fix at the cable tree of the Honda.
Or have I messed up something?
Thank you so much for your efforts!
If I understand what you are saying, you are correct 👍
As investigation to the crf1000-1100 qs i like to know is it inside micro switched (or strain gauge)
is it on 5volt from connector ,and is the sensor output hi on upshifting (5 volt ,4,5 volt ?)
and low on downshifting ( 0,5 volt or 0 volt ?) and in non used 2,5 volt ?
and how much pendal pressure to get it switched (5 kg /10 kg or ?? kg)
i want a qs ,no info to find yet .
thanx W
Isn’t the quick shifting always working, it just takes a bit longer when in cruising rpm then when rpm are higher?
Awesome video, very helpful. Thanks buddy 🙂👊
PS: How much does the OEM quick shifter cost to buy in europe ?
No problem 🙂👊.
I'm not sure I bought mine here in the USA
👍👍
Thanks Dmitry 👍
Hello, how do I get to the Equipment tab in the menu? Thank you for answer.
Excellent video , very helpful !!
Do you have any idea about original alarm ? Mechanical set up is easy but I can’t adjust the volume and sensitivity ! Thanks a lot !
Thank you, I do not, I don't have one and I've never dealt with one 🤷
Thanks a lot !! Ok 👍
Gambiarra
Did you do this install on a US version of the AT? Great video!
Hi Jon, yes it's a US version 👍
Excellent tutorial, I've just installed one. The 22 on model the quick shifter doesn't include the gear selector pedal and is half the price. Wish me luck I'm of for a test ride.
Good luck man, you’ll love it 😀👍
I have a question Can quickshifter shift gears down with open throttle?
Great video! Just one question. Why did You bypass / jump service connector? Is this mandatory to do while installing QS?
Yes, it's mandatory to enter the program menu to activate the QS 👍
Abela how do you like the new Quick shifter on your AT ? Do you find its as smooth as DCT when shifting Gears up and down ???? Ive never ridden a bike with a QS or DCT so im wondering if a QS is a better way to go than with DCT... I dont think I would like manually shifting the DCT with my Thumb and Finger, but as I said I haven't ridden either one yet.... Enjoyed the install video.... 3 Thumbs UP
Hi Mark, I love the quishifter, made my trip to Seattle so much better, as far as QS go the Africa twin is pretty smooth, but the DCT is smoother. If you ride mainly on road and a lot, maybe the DCT is worth a try.
Hello,
Awesome video, very informative.
Quick question - does Honda also provide the electrical tape that they specifically require? If not - how hard is it to get the electrical tape with the exact dimensions they require?
Also, how exactly did you jump the SCS connector? Couldn't figure out what you were using to actually do it.
Overall seems very straightforward and easy to install.
Thanks!!
Hi, no, Honda doesn't provide the tape, I just measured it and cut it to size, even width wise, I used I piece of wire to jump the connector, you can also use a paperclip. Good luck 😀👍
@@AlbesADV Thank you for your comment!!
Hello Sir, thanks much for great video on installation. Quick question - can you check if you get false neutral between 5 and 6 gear as well using quickshifter ? Thanks Petr
Hi Petr, I do not, I've done 3000 miles (+-4800km) so far when I rode to Seattle and never got the false neutral.
Part 1 of that ride coming out in 2 weeks by the way 😀
I experienced the same today. But I didnt push the shifter anough upwards. Do you still have this problem?
Hi Albe, I have the QS installed but I intend to change the levers to Zeta's revolver shifter. Would this effect the function of the Original Quick shifter? Or as long as the height specification is retained I should not have any problem? Your advice is greatly appreciated!
Whatever lever you use shouldn't matter as long as the geometry of the shifting rod stays somewhat the same 👍
Thanks a lot🙏🏼🙏🏼
Albe! What did you do to your hair! Just kidding. Love you channel and love your bike man! I’m considering this one or the Tiger 900 Rally (Pro)..
😁 Thanks Danny, both are great bikes, make sure you get to sit on both of them before you make your choice 😀👍
@@AlbesADV I will! Gonna testride them both on Saturday. Dry feel is that Tiger 900 Rally fits me better, I’m a tall guy. AT need some adjustments on footpegs and handlebar.. First world problems, right 😅
Lol, right. Enjoy the test ride 😀👍
Hello Albe - Great bike and video - I have a 2020 Adventure Sports and my 1st to 2nd gear has never been that smooth (A bit clunky/crunchy - I can change it fairly smoothly most times now as I have grown used to it, it takes technique) But I am wondering if fitting a quick shifter kit to my bike would improve the gear change for me..?
Hi there, I'm not sure it will make it smoother, usually the shift from first to second gear is the rougher of them all because first is so short. The only thing I can say with certainty is that if you can spend the money for a Quick Shifter you will be happy with it.
Congratulations on your 2020 AT AS 😀👍
@@AlbesADV Thankyou - Ride safe.
Do you make a video uninstalling heated grips on the twin?
If you mean installing heated grips, I will be making one soon, i already bought the parts for it 😀👍
Hi excellent video I'm in the process of installing my QS, I have a 2022 AT and I can't find the instructions, where did you get them? can you share the PDF with us or in an email? than you.
Go to the Honda accessories page, select the quick shifter and on the description there is a pdf file with the instructions 😀 👍
After you jumped that plug with the wire and started the bike and did everything, did you put the dummy plug back on?
Yes, once you get into the programming menu and you are all done put tge dummy plug back on
@@AlbesADV thx, just got a 2021 AT and want to get the quick shifter for it too
Great choice 😀👍
What kind of wire did you use to jump the SCS connector?
Just regular electrical wire, might have been 18 gauge
Hi Albe... can you down shift to first gear?
Yes 👍
Hi, this is the old one qs (much expensive) or new one ( cheaper for 2022)
This is the 2021 QS
ciao,una domanda,cosa significa il settaggio debole,medio e forte ? io ho settato debole in su e debole in giu ma nel passare di marcia dalla 5 alla 6 già per 2 volte il cambio ha sfollato e non è entrata la marcia.
Tu che settaggio stai usando? hai avuto problemi di sfollata a salire di marcia? grazie e ciao dall'Italia,credo che sei italiano anche tu per quello scrivo in italiano
ciao
io ho il modello 2020 crf1100 adv
spot
👋🏻
Ciao, io uso il settaggio medio. Debole, medio e forte si riferisce alla pressione del piede che devi usare sulla leva per cambiare marcia, praticamente è la sensibilità della leva, prova a aumentarla e vedi se cambia qualcosa 👍
Thanks, how long take it the installation kit??
Probably between 2 and 4 hours, Depends on how comfortable you are at taking the bike apart
@@AlbesADV Thanks Albe, At a Honda dealer they asked me for 3 hours of labor, I saw it excessive and that's why I asked you, now I have found one that only asks me for 1 hour of labor to install it...🤔
Very well 👍
Ciao Albe,
Vivo in TEXAS, ho da poco acquistato un 2022 ATAS.
Seguendo il tuo video sono riuscito ad installare il quick shifter, ma c’è un problema. (GRAZIE)
Funziona perfettamente quando si cambia in salita, ma quando si va a scalare, le marce entrano ma non fa “blip” quindi la scalata è brusca.
Ho controllato tutto e le impostazioni sono tutte corrette.
Hai per caso qualche suggerimento?
Grazie in anticipo.
Ciao Vark, l'unica cosa che puoi provare è di riprovare a disabilitare il quick shifter e riabilitarlo e vedere se il problema si aggiusta, fammi sapere
Hi, could you tell me if the pedal is as soft as when you shift gears using the clutch? I'm not sure if mine it's working correctly, I feel the pedal a bit hard
The pedal feel should be the same, if you go to the quick shifter menu you can adjust the sensitivity, maybe that will help. By the way when the QS is working correctly you can hear it cutting the throttle for a fraction of a second on upshift and blipping the throttle on downshift
@@AlbesADV ok thank you tomorrow I Will test for more time
These days I tested the quickshifter better and now i'm sure that it work because I tried to disable it and most of the time I couldn't even shift gears from how hard the pedal is, so the quickshifter do its job... however I still don't understand why shifting gears doesn't always behave the same way, for example shifting from 3 to 4 gear at 5000 rpm sometimes is really super fast and fluid, other times is more rough. also sometimes when I shift down the bike has a little forward overhang
That is pretty weird, I can't think of anything that could give that problem, the only thing is, make sure that the pedal itself moves smoothly, like the actual shift lever pivots freely when disconnected. Long shot, you might want to make sure the chain is tensioned properly and the rear wheel spins smoothly, good luck 🤞
I, on the other hand, have the problem that from 5th to 6th gear it occasionally picks up, maybe I have to change more revs, calculating that they are running in I don't force the accelerations much. Thanks for the video, very detailed
Bonjour !
Depuis l'installation du shifter sur AT 1100 L de 2022...
Quand je passe de la 1er a la 2eme ( en embrayant ! Je n'utilise pas le shifter en 2eme mais seulement a partir de la 3eme )
La vitesse claque beaucoup !!! J'ai regardé les reglage de la tige, garde embrayage mais rien y fait ! Seulement la 2eme claque fort ( toujours en embrayant ) le reste des vitesses est parfait ! Et le shifter quand a lui fonctionne parfaitement !
Une idée ?
Merci beaucoup 😊
Je suis désolé, je ne sais pas, c'est difficile de diagnostiquer sans pouvoir le prouver, bonne chance et joyeux Noël 😀👍
Does anyone know if the quick shifter comes standard on a 2024 model base?
I don't think so, at least not in the USA
What dod you have to pay for the qs ?
$435.22 including taxes
Can quickshifter shift gears down with open throttle?
Not really, the system assumes you are decelerating with the throttle closed and when you kick down 1 gear, the QS blips the throttle up to review match. If the throttle is already open , the QS will do nothing
@@AlbesADV Some say it can be done, others say it can't, Everyone says something different lol :D
There's no way to even check it yourself because demo have DCT only.
In the Tracer 9GT you need to close the throttle (QS 2GEN)
On the Tiger 900 you can downshift with the throttle open,
On the Tracer 9GT+ (QS 3GEN) you can also downshift with the throttle open using the Quickshifter. I don't mean shifting down a gear without QS by hitting the right revs, because that can be done on any motorcycle without QS.
I think this is very important because you can shift down a gear with the throttle open using QS and immediately shoot forward. its very dynamic move when overtaking other vehicles.
Does it have a loud shifting sound like the Yamaha tracer gt ?
No loud shifting sound, as a matter of fact never even noticed
Do you have the stock exhaust ?
Yes
Are you still happy with it? Im thinking about getting these for my ATAS
I am, I still love the QS
@@AlbesADV I got me the QS for the 2022 model which is cheaper and also fits the 2020/21 model. I made a little testride and I already love it :)
Nice!!! 👍
Where did you buy the quick shifter?
I bought it at Socal honda powersports, same place I bought the bike because they still give me a discount. But you can find it on ebay , just make sure you also write OEM 👍
@@AlbesADV thank you for the answer, but I thought you were from somewhere in Europe. Since I’m constantly traveling from Brazil to Germany I was considering buying it there. Brazil is too expensive.
@jphortense i understand the confusion, I'm from Italy but I live in California
I have a problem. I did everything according to the instructions, but the check engine light appeared and the DTC error was 107. What did I do wrong and how to fix it? After entering initialize, nothing else appeared
The is a fault with the shift sensor, the first thing I would do is check that everything is plugged properly, no bent pins etc and there is not a pinched or worn wire. Did you jump the maintenance plug before the inizialization?
@@AlbesADV Yes, I connected the 2 pins according to the instructions, but is it possible that the cable I used to connect these pins was too thin?
@Halfmovies that could be, but it had to be really really thin, double check everything and try again also recheck the other wires around the shifter
@@AlbesADV I think so. I entered service and turned on QS, but after entering Initialize, nothing else happened. Black screen. I think it didn't have the proper voltage due to the thin wire that I connected the pins to
@Halfmovies sounds plausible
are u Portuguese?
Nope, Italian 🇮🇹
@@AlbesADV ale una pizza hawaii with pineapple… i like your videos lol
Thanks Mich, I actually love Hawaiian pizza, to the horror of my fellow Italians 🤣🤣
That motor sounds terrible. Way to much stuff going on in there?
