You can up-shift on a motorcycle pretty easily without using the clutch by letting off the throttle to take the load off the transmission.

A quick shifter does this for you, typically by interrupting ignition or fuel momentarily when you lift up your toe to shift. Fancier quick shifters also use an “autoblipper” to rev match and allow you to downshift as well.
