Shifting
Shifting gears lets you control the
amount of engine power available for
starting off, accelerating, climbing hills,
etc.
This model is equipped with a quick
shifter. See pages 4-3 and 5-16.
TIP
To shift into neutral (
), gently de-
press the shift pedal from 2nd gear, or
slightly raise it while in 1st gear.
NOTICE
ECA22523
When shifting, press the shift
pedal firmly until you feel the
gear shift is complete.
Even with the transmission in
the neutral position, do not
coast for long periods of time
with the engine off, nor tow the
motorcycle for long distances.
The transmission is properly lu-
bricated only when the engine is
running. Inadequate lubrication
may damage the transmission.
Except when using the quick
shifter, always pull the clutch le-
ver when changing gears to
avoid damaging the engine,
transmission, and drivetrain.
