GEAR SHIFTING
Reduce throttle before shifting. Never increase the throttle while shifting gears.
Depress Shift lever to place gear in 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th. Lift up on shift lever to
down shift or place gear in neutral.
Do not rest foot on gear-shift lever while operating mini bike. Resting foot on shift
lever could damage the transmission, or cause transmission to shift unexpectedly.

(1) 1st gear

Points of Attention during Drive
1. Avoid unnecessary idling of engine at high speeds. Idling engine at high
speeds can damage engine.
2. Down shift to lower gears when there is insufficient power to climb hills or
continue forward.
3. As a general rule, the front brake provides approximately 70% of
stopping power. Always use both the rear brake pedal and front brake
lever simultaneously when stopping. Using both front and rear brakes
simultaneously will stop mini bike with greater stability.
4. Decrease the throttle while braking.
