That's how the clutchless shifts are made,with synchronizers.But as stated above,that doesn't mean it's a good idea to do it. Why would anyone want to put undue wear/tear on their trans. ? On such a heavy bike,not a good idea. The clutch on these are practically bullitproof. If you are getting moderate or heavy klunking while shifting WITH the clutch,then the shifts are not being made properly. Anyone who would rather fix a trans. than shift properly has too much time/money on their hands. Not convinced,check out the thread on this forum of the fellow who took on this task himself at home,this shows what is being destroyed by not using the clutch.
