Quickshifters do not have buttons the whole unit is self contained in the gear lever mechinism.

It would be very very easy to disable it to the "satisfaction of the Technical Officals" and then with a flick of a switch it would be working again half way down Bray hill.

Frankly you've gone off topic.

The sole reason for homologation rules is to increase motorcycle sales. There is no other justification for them.

I defy anyone to provide me with a legimate reason for running the TT to these rules.........there is none

Yes sure it was not Bruces fault and sure maybe it was a human error that the poor camshaft grinder made but none the less if the stupid rule wasn't there then his human error would count for nothing.

What is the TT a race? or a test of a grinders micrometer skills ?
