1. SOMETHIG GOOD
2. Great video, thanks!
3. Which shaft is the input and which is the output?
4. First - right fork moves to right
   Second - both forks move to left
   Third - both forks move toward center
   Fourth - both forks move to right
   (now forks on other shaft take over)
   Fifth - fork on other shaft moves left
   Sixth - fork on other shaft moves right
   
   What is the shaft that has the grooves in it called?
5. Wait! Is there one fork shaft or two? Just watching the fork movement, neutral through fourth show only one shaft and then fifth and sixth suddenly have a second shaft. Or is the second shaft there all along and just hidden behind the first shaft because of the angle we're observing from?
   
   Oh, did he actually shift the viewpoint 180 degrees?
6. what about 14 speeds?
7. This is a really great demonstration! Thanks
8. thanks for this videos....
9. It'd be a perfect video if it was like 3 or 4 times slower.
10. Pls any one can give me the dimensions for all the parts of a continuous gear box..
11. Dear all, does anybody knows why some motorcycle gearboxes have the following gear order, starting from the clutch: 1-5-3-4-6-2, and others: 1-5-4-3-6-2? Which is the reason to change the 3rd and the 4th gears position?
12. nice
13. I need to slow this down to grasp what´s going on.
14. the yellow coloured gears are moved by the operation of the gear rod. consequently for each movement a corresponding gear is locked, this is indicated in red colour.
15. an explanatory note about the colour codeing would help.
16. Nice Animation mate thanks 
17. This Design has been used for over 60 years by Honda - and every Scoot.
    It called a Constant Mesh Trannyy by the fact no gears ever become un engaged.
    Only the DOGs move to engage other sectors.
    This design prevents skipping any gear - the path cannot be altered.
18. When you say desmodromic, are you referring to the way the shift forks interface with the shift shaft? It looks as though the forks ride in a sinusoidal groove.
19. I think the top shaft is the input, look at first gear, the small red gear is driving the larger red gear.This would give you more torque, but less speed.At 6th gear, you get a 1 to 1 ratio for speed.
20. It's a motorbike transmission, they don't have reverse
