    you wont hear this as a common one, but the older air kill style works great for me! i dunno, maybe 400 passes and not one single shift has been missed, beside ONE that i didnt press the button. i got side tracked watching the guy next to me bracketracing.

    if space for air tank is limited there is nothing wrong with the Pingel , my brother has been running one for 4 years , but no matter what you decide to use I recomend only MPS kill box

    I have read that some people will use dynojets quick shifter with an air shifter setup. Is this OK? Anyone have any experience with this?

    My bike use to have a dynojet quick shifter, I removed it and added my air shifter. Instead of using my Mps kill box I ran the wires from my horn switch to activate the solenoid and spliced those wires and ran them to a relay. So when the air shift solenoid is activated the relay will activate, which the ignition module quick shifter wires are ran to and once the relay activates it kills the engine.

    No big hunky kill box and I can change the kill time through the ignition module.
    Works perfect.

    Edit: sorry for bumping an old thread but someone may gain from this information.
