So after a shifter adjustment, turning QS off, disassembly, lube, reassembly, aggressive shifting, passive shifting, low rpms and damn near redline shifts...I'm embarrassed to say I believe it was operator error. I had just got new boots as well (during my week of not riding) and I found that I was not completely pulling my foot off of the lever in between shifts. So it would go into gear but would not reset into the next pawl because my foot was still engaging the shift level just that much. :doh: :doh: :doh: :bash: :bash: :bash:

Well, operator error beats a broken quick-shifter. :D
