Shifting Gears
This mo torc ycle is eq

shift” transmission. The neutral is located halfway

in the c lutch lever and push down on the shift
pedal, gently release the clutch lever, then release
the shift pedal.

lift the shift pedal with your toes, gently release the
clutch lever, an
d then release the shift pedal.
To shift down to the next gear, pull in the clutch
lever, push the shift pedal down as far as it will go,
gently release t
he clutch lever, then release the
shift pedal.
WARNING
Downshifting to a lower gear at high speed
causes engine rpm to increase excessively,
potentially damaging the engine and it may
also cause the rear wheel to skid and cause
an accident.
