    Recomend SE5

    The blipper

    The auto downshifts blip the throttle automatically. You can't turn it off.

    Unless I am going for max exceleration on my SE5 on upshifts I feather the throttle a tiny bit. It seems to smooth out...

    Ride On - which type?

    I plan to use the Ride On tire sealant also. Given the type of tires that the Spyder uses, do you use the motorcycle type or the automobile type?
