Moving off
1) Disengage the clutch squeezing the control lever.
2) Push down on gear change lever sharply with the tip of
your foot to engage the first gear.
3) Speed up engine, by turning the throttle twistgrip and
slightly releasing the clutch lever at the same time. The
motorcycle will start moving off.
4) Let go of clutch lever and speed up.
5) To shift up, close the throttle to slow down engine,
disengage the clutch, lift the gear change lever and let
go of clutch lever.
To shift down, release the twistgrip, pull the clutch control
lever, shortly speed up to help gears synchronise, shift down
and release the clutch.
The controls should be used correctly and timely: when
riding uphill do not hesitate to shift down as soon as the
motorcycle tends to slow down, so you will avoid stressing
the engine and the motorcycle abnormally.
Important
Avoid harsh accelerations, as this may lead to misfiring
and transmission snatching. The clutch lever should not be
pulled longer than necessary after gear is engaged, or friction
parts may overheat and wear out.
