When ur going down a long straightaway at 150 mph its easy to lose track of what gear ur in. (It is for me anyway). I want to make sure I down shift into the right gear going into the turn at the end of the straight. You can't shift when ur leaned over so if ur in the wrong gear, ur screwed until you get back up on the bike.

Its also good for passing or when you think ur not in 6th gear or you are.... etc....

Yes. The issue (mine, anyway) is sometimes I won't get to 6th gear on the straight. I'll downshift 2 or 3 times while on the brake before letting out the clutch. I'll have to look down to see if I'm in 2nd, 3rd, or 4th...
