    I find it interesting how those of us having learned with manuals just know when to shift after a while, even if the music is blaring.
    You sort of just feel it.

    You’ll get there soon, OP, just keep practicing!

      You literally feel it in the seat of your pants, after a while.

      I have 2 cvt scooters (no real defensible reason), and it makes me uncomfortable having RPMs go up or down without direct relationship to speed

        Hehe yeah I feel you mate.
        I ride motorcycles and struggle getting used to scooters. The almost digital feeling throttle control (on/off, speed will come eventually) is not for me.

        Enjoy your scooters this summer!

      Old VWs just had a mark on the speedo telling you what gear to be in. So you kinda shift around the marker. So easy.
