chrisx Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 well to me 5-6 is smooooth. 2004 rt. i have a different question. 2 actually. 1) when downshifting from higher speeds aka an off ramp. i find it difficult to do it without scary noises. especially if i use the brakes to bring it down and skip two gears or so by braking. i.e. 4h - 2nd do i just crunch a go there too? just get a better handle on higher rpm shift points? 2) crap...should of asked it first. it was a new one and i forgot it already. thats ok. here is another. any chance 2004 rt tupperware would fit on a 2005? just curious.

BFish Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 no way 2004 tupperware would fit a 2005 rt. this is assuming the 2005 is the new model. night and day. Link to comment
Rob L Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 When downshifting, blip the throttle to help match the engine RPMs to the transmission RPMs. This will put a lot less stress on the gears and the clutch and should make for a quieter shift. Takes some practice! 2004 and 2005 are totally different Link to comment
Ken H. Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 any chance 2004 rt tupperware would fit on a 2005? Are we asking 2005 R1150RT (there are a few) or 2005 R1200RT? If the former, yes, if the later, no way. Link to comment
