Why is a gearchange really smooth if the clutch is only depressed about halfway? Does it damage anything to do this? Presumably something is having to take up the strain.
Cheers,

It depends upon at what point there is clearance between the friction plate and driven plates. This can happen at 1/2 pedal travel. The rest of the pedal travel just increases the clearance. If you have the revs about right, the synchro is helping as well.
