Moving off
1) Disengage the clutch by squeezing the control lever.
2) Push down the gear change lever decisively with the tip
of your foot to engage the first gear.
3) Speed up engine, by turning the throttle twistgrip and
slightly releasing the clutch lever at the same time. The
motorcycle will start moving.
4) Release the clutch lever completely and accelerate.
5) To shift to second gear, close the throttle to reduce
engine revs, disengage the clutch, lift the gear change
lever and release the clutch lever.
To shift down, release the twistgrip, disengage the clutch,
briefly accelerate the engine to allow the gears to
synchronize, shift down and release the clutch.
Use the controls intelligently and promptly: when riding
uphill, shift down immediately when the motorcycle
begins to slow down, to avoid abnormal stresses on
the motorcycle structure as well as on the engine.
Important
Avoid sudden accelerations, as this may lead to
misfiring and transmission snatching. The clutch lever should
not be held longer than necessary after a gear is engaged,
otherwise friction parts may overheat and wear out.
