What's the best quick shifter (up AND down) for the Super Tenere?

Hi all a bit late on this post, I'm just in talks about having a shifter on my 2018 with a map, he says it can be up and down, does anyone know anyone on here who can complete such a task? Many thanks
QS down is easy, you just have to cut the injection for a few milliseconds when you receive the signal from the sensor...but a QS UP...is more complex. You have to accelerate the engine to match the rpm with the speed and that is not so easy . If you do it inside the ecu software, it means “modifying the program”…..if you do it outside the ecu, when the engine accelerates through the QS, the ecu will take it as a critical error….

My tiger has a QS. It’s a lot like cruise. Once u get it. It tough going back. When it’s cold. I don’t need to take my hands off the heated grips unless I’m taking off.

I've had a Power Commander V and added the optional Quick Shifter to it. Works well with full throttle clutchless upshifts in 3rd gear or higher. It's too jerky for me from 1st or 2nd.

Pretty sure there some examples of those shifts in this video, maybe check around 2:38:
Looks like you hooked up with a number 1 liter sportbike canyon carvers. They were flying. Great job of squeezing everything shes got out of her in pursuit !

I really don’t get the whole “ must have a quick-shifter” thing. Yes, I have ridden bikes with a QS, but for goodness sake, the QS was intended for racers trying to carve fractions of a second off their lap times on a race track. I can do clutchless up shifts, (it’s really not difficult), but why anyone, especially on this Forum, would want a QS is beyond me. I prefer to ride in analogue mode, so KISS is the principle I ride by.
