    hello fello spideys, I've had my ride for about a month and have found by accident that I can hold the throttle open and hold the paddle shift button pressed and this thing can speed shift on its own throug out all the gears ...is this OK!? or am I looking for trouble. CHEERS!

    Identify what you have control over and find peace with what you don't.

    You should just hold the throttle steady to upshift, not roll it off. Briefly pushing the button each time you want to shift is the norm, though.
