When you refer to 'auto-blip', i believe youre referring to just the quickshifter function when upshifting.

'Auto blip' refers to clutchless downshifting. Those didnt come out til the '17 tuono and rsv4.

 

I understand the difference between quick shifting and auto-blip. I just ran the VIN again, it is a 2016. I have ridden this bike and it does, in fact, have auto-blip downshifting.

 

No it doesn't. Unless it's an aftermarket auto-blipper.
You're just banging downshifts without the clutch and without an auto blipper? That can't be good.

I have a '16 Tuono and a '13 RSV4 btw. I'm kinda hip to the Aprilias. At least i think i am.

 

Gapman is correct coming from another Aprilia loyalist. Autoblip was not available until 17+ for the Tuonos & RSV4's

 

Yeah. Unless there's an IRC kit fitted, 16s don't have that. Looking at that shift sensor. That's standard pre autoblip aprc shift sensor right there. i.e. No revmatch downshift.

So how long have you been riding it? Want to know how many times you've forced downshifts thinking it was autoblip.

 

You can still blip via wrist which is debated as actually being easier on the gears vs clutching.

But just like that sans blipper... hmmm...

 

Yeah, I've banged upshifts and downshifts on various sport and dirt bikes for nearly 4 decades with just a blip of the wrist, and have yet to damage any gears.

 

Sure....but banging downshifts while assuming you have an auto blipper?...good luck with that.

If that were the case, then why is there such a thing as an auto blip? Cant imagine mfgs spending the r&d on something that is less effective thsn just high rpm clutchlesss downshifts.Whats next, red limiters are useless?

 

Blip comes from doung it by hand... rev matching... even more with straight cut gears

 

Right. So dude thought he had an auto blipper and was not blipping with his wrist. That aint good. Thats my point.

Ive been 'blipping' since '93 when i first stsrted racing.

Im huying an 18 rsv4 but not gor the blipper or the tft dash....moreso for the extra power and improved top end.
