To change into a higher speed gear, firstly decelerate a little, release the
accelerator and, at the same time, press the clutch lever, shift the gear lever to
the next higher speed gear position and release the clutch lever, slightly rotate
the accelerator. In this way, the highest gear can be engaged gradually.
Note
For high speed riding, always avoid releasing the accelerator suddenly. it
is advised to wait a moment when the engine is running at 3000-5000rpm
before fully releasing the accelerator. This can prevent the engine from
shutdown due to abnormal combustion.
Use of transformation device
Transformation device is able to allow the engine running smoothly
within normal range of operation. The transmission gear ratio is carefully
selected for the engine performance. Driver should select gears suitable to
general conditions but should not use the clutch for the purpose of speed
control. To decelerate, shift to a low gear to allow the engine running in a
normal speed range.
Precaution
The engine speed should not be in the red range of the tachometer in
any gear.
Riding on a slope
To shift from a high gear to a low gear, control the speed in a safe
speed range before gear shifting. Otherwise, abrupt deceleration (sudden rise
of engine speed) may happen, causing gear impacts, sever parts wearing, or
overbalance of the vehicle. it is dangerous.
Slope climbing:
When going up a steep slope, the motorcycle may decelerate due to
insufficient power. Then, immediately shift to a low gear to allow the engine
running a normal power range. Pay attention that, gear shifting should be
made quickly to keep adequate forward momentum of the motorcycle.
When going down a slope, use the engine for braking, by shifting
into a lower gear.
Be sure to keep in mind that, never drive too fast down a slope!
Never allow the engine to run a very high speed for a long time.
Use of brake and parking method
Rotate the accelerator grip outward to fully close the throttle.
At the same time, apply the front and rear brakes with even forces.
