TO DECREASE SPEED
The throttle is spring loaded and should
return to idle when you release your
grip.
NOTE:
This vehicle is equipped with
an ETC (Electronic Throttle Control).
The throttle plates in the throttle body
are controlled electronically and can be
opened or closed irrespective of the
throttle twist grip position when nec-
essary. It may happen that when you
accelerate, the VSS (Vehicle Stability
System) prevents engine acceleration
in order to maintain vehicle stability.
Then, when the vehicle is stabilized,
the engine RPM would increase as re-
quested if the throttle was maintained.
This would be felt as a "delayed" accel-
eration.
3) Clutch Lever
(SM6 Model)
The clutch lever is in front of the left
handgrip.
The clutch controls the
transmission of power from the en-
gine to the rear wheel. The lever is
squeezed in to disengage power and
eased out to engage power.
Clutch Lever Position Adjustment
The distance between the clutch lever
and handgrip can be adjusted from po-
sition 1 (greatest distance) to position 4
(smallest distance).
1. Push the clutch lever forward to re-
lease the adjuster dial. Hold in posi-
tion.
2. Turn the adjuster dial to the desired
position aligning the dial number
with the dot on the lever.
