Shifting Gears
1. Gear shift pedal
Close the throttle while pulling in
the clutch lever. Shift into the next
higher or lower gear. Open the
throttle part way, while releasing
the clutch lever. Always use the
clutch when shifting gear.
Note:
• The gear shift mechanism is the
'positive stop' type. This means that,
for each movement of the gear shift
pedal, you can only select each gear,
one after the other, in ascending or
descending order.
Quickshifter - Speed Triple S
(if equipped) and Speed Triple R
The Speed Triple R is equipped with a
race-style quickshifter which will trigger
a momentary engine cut to allow gears
to engage, without closure of the
throttle or operation of the clutch.
Note:
• The quickshifter is an accessory
install on Speed Triple S.
The quickshifter will only operate for
up-shifts and only then if the engine
speed is greater than 2,500 rpm. The
clutch must be used for all other gear
shifts including stopping and pulling
away.
The quickshifter will not operate if the
clutch is applied or if an up-shift is
attempted by mistake when in 6th gear.
It is necessary to use a positive pedal
force to ensure a smooth gear shift.
Warning
Take care to avoid opening the
throttle too far or too fast in any of
the lower gears as this can lead to the
front wheel lifting from the ground
(pulling a 'wheelie') and to the rear tire
breaking traction (wheel spin).
Always open the throttle cautiously,
particularly if you are unfamiliar with
the motorcycle, as a 'wheelie' or loss
of traction will cause loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.

Warning
Do not shift to a lower gear at speeds
that will cause excessive engine rpm
(r/min). This can lock the rear wheel
causing loss of control and an
accident. Engine damage may also be
caused. Shifting down should be done
such that low engine speeds will be
ensured.
