torque,
the motorcycle must be

Gear Shift Assistant
Pro
with Pro shift assistant
OE
Your motorcycle is equipped with
a gear-shift assistance function
originally developed for racing
but now specially adapted for
touring use. It allows you upshift
and downshift under almost any
load conditions and in virtually all
engine-speed ranges without op-
erating the clutch or accelerator.
Benefits
70-80 % of all gear changes
can be performed without us-
ing the clutch.
Less movement between pilot
and pillion due to shorter gear-
change intervals.
Throttle does not have to be
closed when changing gear
under acceleration.
During deceleration and down-
shifts (throttle plate closed) the
system blips the throttle to ob-
tain the correct engine speed.
Shifting times are faster than
when the clutch is used to
change gears.
For the system to detect the rid-
er's intention to change gear,
the previously stationary gear
lever must be moved in the de-
sired direction against the force
of the spring and with a certain
amount of "overtravel" at a stan-
dard to rapid travel speed, and
