lovely video, thanks! I've been fortunate enough to test this lovely mod and it does cut the mustard really well! And the price is way better than the counter option's! I have to tell you this isn't the first HealTech stuff on my bike and won't be the last that's for sure! I love my GIpro as well and the Speedohealer is a must too... cheers!

[@LambChopRides]

Gabor Hegedus Thanks for the feedback Gabor, looking forward to testing it very soon on the street! Ive had a HM plus on the bike so will be good to compare like for like :)

[@livewoutlimit]

Fantastic write up!

[@aizerson666]

Waiting for your on road test video.. Great vid.. Waiting for mine to arrive at least I know what to expect..

[@LambChopRides]

Shouldn't be to long Muhammad :)

[@armarra]

I've found the Healtech to be fine in a sprint ST triple. The setting that says delay is to deal with our own variability in how we shift. By setting a longer delay with a higher threshold it stops the accidental cutting of the engine and it stops the variability of our shift action affecting the actual shift. The idea is to increase the delay to make sure enough time is given to reach the threshold and that it's not just an accidental slight tap of the gear lever. I thought your shifts seemed good at both low and high rpm. Removing any play in the linkages by renewing them Helps the feel a lot. I was so paranoid about over tightening the sensor that my gear arm was loose on the gear spindle... So I turned on the phone app and kept tightening the nut until I saw it was beginning to read on the sensitivity then of course back it off. This made sure the arm that the Bolt went through wasn't too tight but not too loose either. Very good video. Very clear diction and good camera work.

[@2391jessie]

Video and discussion is extremely helpful. Thks all!

[@robdefire4747]

Thanks for the vid Mate. I fitted mine tonight and it didnt take long as I had the heads up how to do it. Being the latest version it says it is adaptive so we will see. If not I will put it into expert mode and set the kill times.

[@LambChopRides]

+Rob Defire thanks Rob, I also have the iqse model fitted to my other bike so doing an updated video shortly but adaptive mode seems to work well 👍

Great video, what you recommend for my gsxr1000 2016, healtech or hm plus, I'm doing 75% road 25% track ? Great content, keep it up Lamb chops.

[@321marshmello]

Took her out for twenty minutes or so today and i ramped the sensor sensitivity all the way up and it deffinetly made a big difference. I also put the cutoff delay to 10ms.. i might turn up the cut off delay alittle bit to see how the bike responds in coming days.

[@LambChopRides]

Thanks for the heads up, will be ready to test mine on the road next week, can't wait :)

[@bigchungus2667]

Came from the healtech vid, me mum thought i was watching some softcore porn because of the background music lol

[@riderread1750]

Ive got one of these fitted to a gsxr1000 that i brought. I didnt install it and the sensor is attached to the top of the gear linkage rod, its not all that smooth when changing gear (clutchless) do you think i should move the sensor to where you have yours placed ?

[@unlockyourminds]

hey, do you have the "old" sensor or the new one? cause mine look different than yours. cheers

[@russellgreenie]

Cool vid. Very well explained. Look forward to see how this performs. It's got quite a mountain to climb to be as good/better than an HM unit Imho :-)

[@LambChopRides]

Thanks Russell, yes I agree but my expectations are high! Took a HM plus off the bike to test this so can do a back to back comparison :)

[@trebor4460]

nice vid thanks, i have a healtech on my 2015 kawa Z1000 and have to say i wouldnt use it below 5000 rpm as its crude to say the least and certainly not smooth and fluid, and even then only works well in the higher rev range if on the shift rod and not as advised by Healtech on the spline. this is just my opinion but no matter what settings you try the sensor is just not consistent enough for lower rev changes, works well enough in the high rev range which i guess is what a quickshifter is designed for. Anyway thanks for a nice informative vid.

[@tazzabrawi9098]

I just installed the healtch quick shifter on my z1000 2016 sooo you recommend to start using above 5000 rpm?

[@mattfireblade9136]

This is a test-run in higher rpm range: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hn3Gc6Gha7N5oas For my experience on my 2004 cbr1000rr it does change gear okay in lower rpm ranges after tuning the killtimes a little bit down from standard. But the high rpm ranges, it just slides lovely into the next gear like ... (place nasty comparisation)...

[@bikefever3569]

Great video. Do you need to have Bluetooth on once installed or just for installation?

[@svenskavapes8558]

If I want to drive without the shifte, can i just pull out the small cable from the box? The sencor cable? Thanks from sweden

[@riderread1750]

Can you give me your settings so i can try them out on my bike ? I hope it hasnt been pin locked ........

[@Laz253]

Thanks for this review. I'm thinking of getting this unit. I currently have a Dynojet Power Commander V that is linked to my coils, do you know if I will be able to attach this unit without issue due to my Dynojet fuel management being connected? I take it the Dynojet should have some type of way to piggyback the Healtech QSE?

[@LambChopRides]

+Las Rick (Laz) yes you can piggy back again off the coils if your PC connects to your coil packs, not all of them do depends if it has the ignition option included.

[@darsh1522]

[@LambChopRides]

[@maxdecebel]

What happens when you move the gearshift lever down instead of up? Does the sensor see a downward movement? (Shifting in the direction 6-5-4-3-2-1) Ps I don't want it to interrupt my ignition when I switch to first gear

[@oogaboogaman753]

The only may it works is if it cuts ignition.

[@TheGoldenFlyers]

Can you still shift with the clutch even with this on ?

[@sjg6074]

Chops......In your humble opinion, who makes the best quickshifter? I have a Healtec on my VFR 800 and I’m looking to install one on my Tiger 800 as Triumph don’t do one for my bike? Is Healtec one of the better ones still or are there others you know of.

[@bunty1986]

awesome video! quick question...is the install the same on a carb bike? the bike in question is a cbr600 steelie f3.

[@elskipador]

+bunty1986 after watching the video, i feel this kit will totally work on any carbed bike, with the right "wiring lume" as the guys state. though to be honest i feel that on older, simple carb'ed bikes you can probably buy the kit, sans lume & just make your own with the proper gauge & length of wire.

[@arockiaprakashjayachandran5220]

Can this quick shifter be connected to yahama-fzs ver2 with stock ECU or should we change the ECU for connecting the quick shifter

[@LambChopRides]

+arockia prakash it should connect fine, send Translogic a message they can confirm 👍

[@321marshmello]

Ive just installed healtech QS on my 07 cbr 1000.. have you also noticed the sensor is extremely sensitive?

[@LambChopRides]

Yes does seem to be Michael, have you tried it on the road? Adjust the sensitivity from the app?

[@gregparkes8089]

Lamb.... when you plugged the piggy back plugs in is their an order in which they should go? Like are they numbered? Also the 2 plugs with the red marker on do they both plug into the same coil pack or do you split them between 2 coil packs? Or and lastly does the red marked ones have a specific coil to go on? Thanks.

[@bloodybodies6662]

Depends on how many cylinders your bike is if it's four it doesn't matter where you plug them if it's three use red marked on 1st and 3rd coil if 2 use only red

[@bloodybodies6662]

Also if one cylinder use the red one with the power wire it'll have three wires instead of two hope this helps you

Does this work for downshifts?

[@skylinrcr01]

So once the settings are set, are they sent to the unit? or is it constantly querying your phone for its settings?

[@LambChopRides]

The setting are stored on the unit, the phone connects and downloads them each time. You then make adjustments on the phone and when compete upload to the unit

[@lillnemo1]

man, are you daft???? why the hell would you even consider the phone has to be used all the time?? offcourse the settings are set in the healtech unit itself.... jezus,,, people are really getting dumb and lazy ...

It's not plug and play. no adjustment required to the ECU. if you want a plug and play quick shifter buy a tranlogic far bar job all round

[@nevetsks]

Thanks for the video. Curious though as to where your getting the kit with the sensor from as I note the following on the manufacturers web site :- "The QSE sensor is not available in the USA, Canada, United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, France, Spain, Japan and China due to patent claims in these countries. Available in all other countries through our distributors and dealers."

[@LambChopRides]

Hmm odd Steve, I got mine from bikersdiscountstore.co.uk as shown in the vid.. Unless something has changed..

[@nevetsks]

Lamb Chop Rides Strange, it would mean they are effectively out of the market if they can not sell the sensor in those countries as that a big demographic to alienate yourself from.

[@LambChopRides]

Yes, just check BDS no longer list it.... I think they have got in trouble with a patent infringement on the sensor... Will try and find out

[@LambChopRides]

Lamb Chop Rides Some info, they have been removed from sale temporarily due to a patent infringement on the location of the sensor. Healtech hope to have it resolved with a week. I've been advised to ask potential buys to phone the in country dealers and ask about stock..

[@nevetsks]

Many thanks LCR. Be good if they can resolve it as the strain gauge they use does open up a lot of applications which have a cramped linkage layout.

if its the healtech one then it could be on what he has set it to within the rpms

[@K-carbon]

🙄 pay sum one that actually knows what he is doing

[@michaeljulian4997]

Looks like a neat kit, but there is no way the strain gauge is accurately measuring preload from that sensor on the bolt. I would be concerned about accurate preload and associated wear on the transmission parts over a proper inline strain gauge.

[@LambChopRides]

The new sensor does fit in line on the shift rod, but it does work very well where it's located. I know it doesn't look like its going to work located there but I've had no problems thus far.. Have just fitted the latter sensor now though to stop the false down shifts cuts

[@Weeem]

Sweet... Are you testing it over the winter or waiting until warmer weather comes?
