Do I have quickshift?

[O'erTheHill]

I've tried but quickshifting up and down--my first Beemer to do both, and I can't say I yet a fan; I wince every time at the hit the transmission seems to take. On my K1300S it was a nice way to keep my wife from smacking my helmet with hers on every upshift, but even in upper gears the shifting seems violent. Interestingly, on my bike the quick downshifts seem less dramatic. I guess there's still some special throttle control technique I need to learn to replace the clutch technique that's worked for half a century.
