Well you need it to take off. That's about it. Plenty of threads on 'clutchless shifting'- w/o a quick shifter too. YOu can even blip the throttle and downshift too if you like.
ON mine, it happened just taking off 90% of the the time. Chattered is a pretty good descriptive term i guess.
I just replaced the conical washer listed (from a 750?) and now I get ,chatter less than 1% of the time.
