i like reverse shift patern,i m comfortable with it.i prefer to upshift by pressing down the lever.
be careful if you re not used to,it could take some times.
it s my opinion.

took me a few rides to get used to it, all together a month to get 100% used to it, but now i love it!

Yeah, took a couple of weeks to get use to it, but I like the setup. Once you get use to it you like it even more, takes a bit of time or thinking of what you are doing at first, but once you get use to it, nothing to it.

i just flipped mine 2 days ago and i'm pretty much used to it already, its not that difficult as long as you can remember its reversed without having to think about it.

lol, he's right. I flipped the shifter on my bike about a month after i got it. It makes it easier for me to shift cuz i have big feet. But it made no differences or anything in the turns. It only took me about 1 full day of riding to get used to it. And now that i'm used to it, i don't think i'll ever be able to go back.
