8 RIDING INSTRUCTIONS

–
When conditions allow (incline, road situation, etc.), you can shift into a higher gear.
–
Release the throttle while simultaneously pulling the clutch lever, shift into the next
gear, release the clutch and open the throttle.
Info
You can see the positions of the 6 forward gears in the figure. The neutral or idle
position is between the first and second gears. First gear is used for starting off
or for steep inclines.
The operating temperature is reached when 5 bars of the temperature indicator
light up.
–
After reaching maximum speed by fully opening the throttle grip, turn the throttle back
so it is ¾ open. This will barely reduce the speed but fuel consumption will be consid-
erably lower.
–
Accelerate only up to a speed suitable for the road surface and weather conditions.
When traveling in bends, do not shift, and accelerate very carefully.
–
To shift down, brake if necessary and close the throttle at the same time.
–
Pull the clutch lever and shift into a lower gear, release the clutch lever slowly and open
the throttle or shift again.
–
If the engine stalls (e.g. at a crossroads), just pull the clutch lever and press the elec-
tric starter button. You do not have to shift into neutral.
–
Switch off the engine if you expect to be standing for a long time.
–
Avoid frequent and longer slipping of the clutch. This heats the engine oil, the engine
and the cooling system.
–
Ride with a lower engine speed instead of with a high engine speed and a slipping
clutch.
–
If the FI warning lamp ( MIL ) lights up during a trip, stop immediately. When you shift to
neutral, the FI warning lamp ( MIL ) starts to flash.
