The motorcycle shifters and blippers are essential electronic motorcycle accessories for demanding riders seeking performance, smoothness, and comfort while riding. Often used in competition, these devices are becoming increasingly popular among enthusiasts who wish to improve their riding experience on track or road.

Moto Vision offers a wide range of professional Shifters, Blippers, and Quickshifters. From brands such as IRC, Starlane, and Healtech, these small electronic units save precious time during gear shifting. Products are available in inverted or adaptable versions and always in Plug & Play! Make sure to check product compatibility with your motorcycle before ordering.

What is the difference between a Shifter and a Blipper?

A motorcycle shifter allows fast gear changes without using the clutch or rolling off the throttle, thanks to an electronic system that briefly interrupts ignition or fuel injection. This technology reduces gear-change time, improves overall performance, and minimizes gearbox wear.

The motorcycle blipper, on the other hand, is an extension of the quickshifter, offering the ability to downshift without using the clutch while automatically managing engine speed.

Both devices ensure smoother, sportier, and optimized riding, especially during acceleration and braking when entering a corner.

How do motorcycle shifters and blippers work?

Technical operation of a motorcycle shifter

A shifter relies on a pressure or tension sensor installed on the gear linkage. When the rider applies pressure to the selector, the sensor sends a signal to the electronic unit. It then interrupts the ignition or injection for a few milliseconds (2 to 80 ms depending on the model). This micro-cut, imperceptible to the rider, removes mechanical tension between the gearbox gears and allows the next gear to engage instantly.

Modern shifters, such as those offered by IRC, Starlane, or Healtech, use advanced technologies such as:

  • Piezoresistive sensors for ultra-fast detection
  • Dynamic cut-time management depending on engine speed
  • Compatibility with ride-by-wire motorcycles
  • Customizable sensitivity settings
  • Road / track modes to optimize the riding experience

Technical operation of a motorcycle blipper

The motorcycle blipper (or auto-blipper) is a more advanced module that allows clutchless upshifting as well as automatic downshifting. It uses:

  • An automatic increase in engine speed to synchronize engine and gearbox speed
  • An inclination sensor (IMU) on some models, adjusting downshifts based on lean angle
  • An electronic management algorithm capable of adapting the duration and intensity of the "blip"

This technology is particularly appreciated during braking when entering corners, as it prevents rear-wheel locking and improves stability.

When and how to replace a shifter or blipper?

When installing one of these electronic accessories, it is essential to ensure that the model is compatible with your motorcycle and meets your technical requirements: some motorcycles require an additional module, integrated sensor or not, available settings, intended use...

Although installation can be performed by an experienced amateur following the manufacturer’s instructions, it is recommended to entrust the task to a professional to ensure optimal adjustment and avoid errors that could damage the gearbox.

A shifter or blipper should be replaced or installed when you wish to improve performance or in case of malfunction of the existing equipment. Signs of a problem include slower gear shifting, jerks, or loss of smoothness.

Although robust, these accessories require regular maintenance:

  • Check the linkage and tightening
  • Control sensor sensitivity
  • Clean the connectors
  • Perform firmware updates when available
