Shift assistant Pro
Your vehicle is equipped with
shift assistant, a feature that
was originally developed for ra-
cing and has been adapted for
touring. It permits upshifts and
downshifts without declutching or
closing the throttle in virtually all
load and rpm ranges.
Advantages
70-80 % of all gearshifts on a
trip can be done without using
the clutch.
Less relative movement
between rider and passenger
because the shift pauses are
shorter.
It is not necessary to close the
throttle valve when shifting un-
der acceleration.
When braking and downshifting
(throttle valve closed), engine
speed is adjusted by blipping
the throttle.
Shift time is shorter than a
gearshift with clutch actuation.
In order for the system to identify
a request for a gearshift, the rider
has to move the shift lever from
its idle position in the desired dir-
ection against the force of the
spring through a certain "over-
travel" at ordinary speed or rap-
idly and keep the shift lever in
this position until the gearshift is
completed. It is not necessary to
increase the force applied to the
shift lever while shifting is in pro-
gress. Once the gear shift has
completed, the gearshift lever
must be fully released before be-
ing able to carry out another gear
shift using the Pro shift assistant.
Constantly maintain the corres-
ponding load condition (throttle
grip position) before and during
gear shifts using the shift as-
sistant. A change in the position
of the throttle twistgrip during a
gearshift can cause the function
to abort and/or lead to a missed
shift. The shift assistant does
not provides assistance for gear
shifts involving clutch control.
Downshifting
Downshifting is assisted until
maximum rpm for the target
gear to be selected is reached.
This prevents overreving.
