Double clutching was the only way to downshift the old three on the trees from 2nd to 1st before synchros.

Grandpa's IH Scout had a 3-spd manual that didn't have synchros for 1st gear. 1st gear was so low that you only really needed it to get going from a dead stop.

Wasn't too big of a deal to learn how to get the RPM right for it to drop into 1st. Only really did that a few times just so I knew how to do it.

Other than getting going from a dead-stop, I'm about 50/50 on whether I use a clutch or not to run through gears of a manual.

Mmmm most bikers are pretty damn soft under all that leather

60’s muscle cars and dirt race cars also a turboed piped sled makes me smile. Not much for two wheels but they do rumble nicley

Unfortunately with the assistance of computers and automatic transmission with 6 or more gears manual transmission are no longer an advantage when it comes to mileage or torque. Even the 18 wheelers are introducing transmissions that use a dual clutch system for better overall efficiency with shifting speeds Volvo with their I shift comes to mind. Times are changing won't be long and you won't even be able to buy a car at least nothing other then a mustang from Ford.

Oh well, no problem.
