TORS
ALWAYS RELEASE THE CLUTCH LEVER SLOWLY TO ALLOW THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION TO ENGAGE
SMOOTHLY AND TO ALLOW THE REAR TIRE TO DEVELOP POSITIVE TRACTION WITH THE ROAD. FAILURE
TO DO SO CAN RESULT IN MECHANICAL DAMAGE, EXCESSIVE WEAR AND BODILY INJURY DUE TO LOSS
OF VEHICLE CONTROL.
The gear shifter lever is located on the lower left side of the vehicle. (Fig.
5
Letter
A
) It is operated with
the left foot.
To change gears, the gear shifter lever must be raised all the way up with the top of the left foot to
increase the gear number desired and must be lowered all the way down with the bottom of the left foot
to lower the gear number desired. One full traverse up or down will accommodate one full gear position
change up or down.
