HM has solved the problem of converting the incredibly expensive technology of MotoGP racing strain gauge shifters into the smoothest, safest, simplest, and most technologically advanced quickshifter product that all of us can finally afford to buy.
What is the difference between other quickshifters and HM Quickshifters?
Virtually all other quickshifters on the market base their action on a mechanical switch, sometimes called "transducers" or "pressure sensors." But, in the end, these quickshifters utilize a mechanical switch.
What's wrong with a mechanical switch?
A) Nothing is wrong with a mechanical switch in an environmentally controlled and clean room. But, everything is wrong with a mechanical switch in the real world where environmental and race-induced elements like rain, dust, dirt, road grime, vibration and shock are what a quickshifter has to endure. These above-mentioned elements are what cause so many mechanical switch quickshifter systems to fail so quickly and often, giving quickshifters such bad reputations.
In contrast to standard quickshifter systems, HM Quickshifters use NO mechanical switches. Everything is digitally controlled! HM Quickshifters are virtually indestructible because there are no moving parts to break or fail.
B) Virtually all mechanical switch (transducers, pressure sensors) versions are "distance" based, meaning the gear lever has to be moved a certain distance for the quickshift to be initiated. Variations and wear over time of a "switch," combined with the variations of your gearbox, your linkage, your rearsets, your connection fittings, etc., means you might actually be "engaging" the gearbox before the quickshift is initiated. Engaging the gearbox before the quickshift is initiated is the cause of clunky shifts, missed shifts, false neutrals and massive amounts of wear to the gearbox.
HM Quickshifters are fully adjustable for gear lever pressure because the HM Quickshifter works by measuring the molecular change in the shift rod when a force is applied to the rod. The quickshift is initiated according to YOUR gearbox, YOUR linkage, YOUR rearsets, etc, of YOUR bike. This is why every rider who tries the HM Quickshifter, especially after swapping off competitors designs, comments on how incredibly quick and smooth the shifts become. Smoother shifts, quicker shifts and less wear on the gearbox are all what make the HM Quickshifter better than any other quickshifter on the market today.
C) Virtually all mechanical switch (transducers, pressure sensors) versions rely on a spring or other pre-tension mechanisms to hold the switch open. The quality and strength of the spring determine the amount of force required to initiate the quickshift, and, as with any springs, these wear with time and no longer respond as designed. The wear to the spring causes rough shifts or damage to your gearbox.
HM Quickshifters have no springs, no moving parts and are 100% digitally controlled. You set the HM to initiate when YOU want, precisely for your bike, 100% of the time.
Why doesn't everyone use the HM type of strain gauge for their shifters?
Strain gauge systems are VERY expensive items, usually costing more than most of us can afford and requiring complex electronics to interface with the bike.
HM uses their own powerful DSP (Digital Signal Processor) as well as their own complex algorithms and software to automatically compensate for zero drift, temperature drift and creep. HM calculates and adjusts over 100 times per second, ensuring glitch free operation across any riding situation. HM provides this technology at a VERY, VERY reasonable price!
Features of the HM Quickshifter:
1) HM Quickshifters are Strain Gauge activated. Nothing else outside of MotoGP uses this technology. Nothing is better; and nobody except HM offers this outside MotoGP.
2) No moving parts means the HM Quickshifters are virtually indestructible and carry a Lifetime Warranty against product malfunction or defect. (Crashing and breaking the product does not count.)
3) HM Quickshifters are the kindest and gentlest way to treat your gearbox. HM uses the ignition side of the motorcycle to unload, which is far kinder then most other designs that come from the fuel side.
4) HM Plus Quickshifters are STAND ALONE systems, integrated to the ignition side of the motorcycle as a quickshifter should be. No need for complex interfaces with other fuel side ECU's, no software glitches, no need for constant adjustments and no chance of interference to any other operational aspect of the motorcycle.
5) HM Plus Quickshifters kill from the ignition side of the engine, so there is no chance of "extended" fuel burning, secondary injectors (which most modern sportbikes have) that are not shut off, or any other problems that might be associated with fuel side controls. Spark is dead, gearbox unloads and the HM initiates an ultra smooth, gentle and unquestionably the fastest gear change you can get.
6) Every function (Compression / Extension, Sensitivity and Kill Time) of the HM Plus is controlled from the HM LCD screen, and you never have to deal with "interface problems" again. This alone is worth TONS given what we have read and seen with some competitor's products!
7) Every HM Quickshifter works in EITHER the "up" or "down" shift pattern (standard or GP shift), and you can change this anytime you wish from the LCD screen. No need to buy "one or the other" for your shift pattern, and you never have the wrong setup. The HM can be set for either, and easily adjusts back and forth anytime you wish.
8) Every HM Plus is fully adjustable for lever sensitivity, so you can adjust for the specifics of your machine, gearbox and riding style. Nothing is kinder to your gearbox then HM.
9) Every HM Plus is fully adjustable for ignition kill time, so you can control exactly how you use the gearbox and how you want the quickshifter to work.
10) The HM Plus is transportable, meaning it can be used on many different machines with the correct wiring loom and shift rod length. The HM Plus is not tied to any ECU "box," so you can reuse your investment over and over! Multiple bikes, changing bikes during the season or buying a new bike means you can most likely bring your HM Quickshifter with you to your different / new machine for very little added expense.
11) HM Plus wiring looms are "plug in and go." No need to splice or cut in any way and no complications with other ECU's. Straight bolt on application and clean removal if the time or need ever comes.
