Having a working kickown in Euro 5 buses is not allowed, Unless the vehicle can meet the emissions standard from somewhere else, Which Pulsar's don't which is why 61 Plate up have restricted kickdowns, Which you posted as being temperamental, Because there restricted.
Econospeed has changed how the whole vehicle makes gear changes now though.
Do you time the gear changes with a watch, like?
