REAR BRAKE CONTROL

The rear brake control (1) is placed on the right-hand side of 

the motorcycle. On models WR a stop switch, during the braking 

action, causes the rear light to come on.

GEAR SHIFT CONTROL

The lever (1) is placed on the left-hand side of the engine. The 

operator must release the lever after each gear change to allow 

it to return to its central position before another gear change 

can be made. 

Neutral position (N) is between first (low) and second gears. 

First gear is engaged by pushing the lever downwards; all the 

other gears are engaged, by pushing the lever upwards. 

The position of the gear shift lever on the shaft can be varied by: 

loosening screw; pulling lever out; placing lever in new position 

on the shaft when the operation is over tighten the screw and 

then tightening the screw.

CAUTION*: Do not shift gears without disen

-

gaging the clutch and closing the throttle. The 

engine  could  be  damaged  by  “overspeed” 

and shock.
WARNING*: Do not downshift when traveling 

at  a  speed  that  would  force  the  engine  to 

overrev in the next lower gear, or cause the 

rear wheel to lose traction.

KICKSTART PEDAL

The kickstart pedal (2) is situated on the right-hand side of the 

motorcycle.
