Oops. Just read my post. My phone autocorrected me into sounding like an asshole. That'll teach me. There was supposed to be a "like a" in there. Didn't mean to imply you didn't know how to drive or were mentally deficient in any way. My apologies.

TuxedoCartman brings up a good point. On a bike, if you don't revmatch properly you can seriously screw yourself over. Too little rear grip to get away with letting the clutch out suddenly in the wrong gear. So being in the correct gear for the speed you are travelling, regardless of whether you are positively or negatively accelerating is very important.
