Abstract
In accordance with an example embodiment, a transmission shifting apparatus may include a transmission having a plurality of gears and a clutch positioned between a power source and the transmission. A shift lever may operably connect to the transmission, such that movement of the shift lever causes the transmission to shift gears. A shift sensor may detect when the shift lever receives an operator input in a manner to generate a gear shift. A shift controller may selectively disengage the clutch when the shift sensor detects the operator input applied to the shift lever, and selectively engage the clutch when the shift controller determines the shift is complete.
