    Im racing my 2005 SV650 and I can't seem to downshift when im approaching a corner. Going at a pretty hot pace, im braking hard then blipping the throttle and using clutch but it won't get the bike down the gears. To get it into the proper gear I need to slow down earlier and spend way too much effort to get it into lower gears. I have GP shifting set up, with dynojet quick shift and the gear shift arm is pointed directly down. I also tried adjusting the clutch cable and no bueno. I race tomorrow and hoping it might be fixable by then?

    Does it downshift through all the gears with the engine turned off and bike on a rearstand?
