L Loki Guest Mar 11, 2009 #2 1 down 5 up is the standard. If it was set up for racing they might have switched it to 1 up 5 down. That way when your accelerating out of a turn with your knee dragging the ground you can still up shift without ripping your foot off on the ground.

S stanno New member Mar 11, 2009 #3 most bikes are 1 down and then up unless the gearing has been changed to race status.
