if you shift it spinning, itll catch in the next gear, and drop out of the powerband, sometimes its just better to ride out the gear until it catches.

I still want to know if that was third or second :lol . Common sense tells me 2nd, but with skinny OEM all-seasons and based on what I can see of the speedo, it might be 3rd.

it applies to any vehicle… dont shift by RPM, shift by speed. If you shift early, you catch traction and you’re not in the powerband when you hit the next gear. If I shift my car spinning the tires in 2nd and go right to 3rd, I’m doing 35mph, I should be going 60 into 3rd.
