No, when you go to shift and youre already in 6th, it doesnt go anywhere.

Considering two of my bikes don't have 6th gear and one of those doesn't have a 5th or 4th gear. I have trouble just getting to 6th most of the time.

Already got both of those covered! Sorta feels like when you are about to pick up a can of beer that you thought was full and it turns out to be empty. You sorta feel cheated and stupid at the same time like the entire room saw that and knows what just happened. Yep, thats how it feels while riding.
