...KNOW WHERE YOUR TORQUE IS, AND USE IT...
Shift-I - Progressive Shift Indicator
Designed to get the Grunt from Your Engine.
A progressive shift light system is the most powerful to use. Traditional shift lights function as a panic alert. A progressive display gives you exactly what you need to get the most from your engines torque. It takes too much concentration to look at the tacho, so it's likely you've never been able to use it. Wait until you try a Shift-I for the first time! It gives you a direct accurate reference for using your engines torque. Importantly, it does this in your peripheral vision keeping your eyes focused ahead.
The Shift-I is a high quality, discrete unit that has established itself as the premium progressive indicator to use.
ìIf ever a product does what it stated to do and is one well made unit, the Shift-I would have to be it. This is one highly recommended product which is great value for money.î Mr Snotty, Ozclubbies Forum

TRACK
Takes offs are very important and you don't want to be the one that just lost 3 positions before the first corner. You rather be the one that just robbed a few spots. Using a progressive shift light, you can stage your RPM right where you need it while concentrating on your reaction time. Launch a perfect takeoff, then in the midst of all the adrenalin and noise, still nail the first few gear changes and get the jump on the pack.
Lap after lap, gear changes tend to move about, particularly with several other engine/exhaust notes on song or in combination with helmet wind noise. Duelling with others can make it hard to get into the zone, and the red mist can easy settle in and effect gear changes. Getting the most from your engine and having that consistency can give you that edge and build the rhythm to move through the pack with precision. The progressive display gives you an anticipated and accurate gear change, getting the most from the available torque without bouncing off the limiter. Consistency can drop your average lap times and put you in a superior position to find those different lines that make you a winner.
STREET
If your carving through some twisty roads, you can see where you are with the power before corner entry and at exit. Too many or too few lights and you'll smoothly change gears. It becomes more of an automatic thing, where your in tune with the RPM. Knowing your on the start of your torque before making an over taking manoeuvre, sets you up to run right through the one gear with an impressive pass. Some people also use it as a gauge of speed. I know if I'm pushing it going into a corner if I've got 4 lights (with appropriate gear selected), particularly some corners! If I'm in an area with radar traps, I know I'm creeping in speed when the next light kicks in. Of course, nailing good take offs again and again is easier with a progressive shift light, particularly when their is company at the traffic lights.

A progressive shift light can give you two keys benefits, gear change consistency and optimum staging. While at the tree, you can stage your RPM right where you plan to have it for a powerful take off. You can then concentrate on the christmas tree lights and nail the takeoff reaction and torque. The progressive display gives you a clear indication of the RPM rising while accelerating, and gear changes become less of a panic and more of an anticipated action at the precise RPM you want. Not only can this improve your times, but it can put you ahead of the game because any modifications you make gives a comparable result.
This is not just a different type of shift indicator... but a formulated approach to give the most direct display for you to use. Seven lights were tested to be the optimal identifiable combination to use in your peripheral vision, while also providing a perfect reference for where you are in the torque curve. 10 display modes were also incorporated to suit the preferences of both the driver/rider and the performance characteristics of different engines.
Important Features...
* The RPM range displayed is set by the buttons, down to 50rpm intervals.... ie. 3150 to 8750rpm.
* Brightness adjusts automatically to ambient light and you can adjust the level yourself.
* Battery voltage display while engine starting.
* Warns you of alternator/regulator overvoltage failures.
* Automatically dims while cruising.
* Australian Made!
Customer Quotes...
"Wonderful product. I love it. I must admit I was skeptical but it really couldnít be much better."
"I have to say the bottom line for me, is it very quickly has made my gear changes a lot smoother and easier on the engine.... I can see how its going to teach me to stop coasting on the track, a habit I have been trying to kick."
"What a great product. Use it on the road or the track, it is faultless"
"I just wanted to e-mail you and say what a well thought out product you have designed - from the texture of the plastic, to the intensity of the LEDs, to the 'unseen' things such as the logic programming of the unit to allow for universal compatibility and multiple shift options."
Compatibility: Distributerless ignition or RPM signals.
