Shifting Gears
Basic Operation & Riding
When you attain a moderate speed, close the
throttle, pull the clutch lever in, and raise the
shift lever. After shifting, release the clutch
lever and apply the throttle.
If engine rpm (speed) is too low when you
release the clutch lever, the engine will stall.
If engine rpm is too high or you release the
clutch lever too quickly, your motorcycle
may lurch forward.
Release the front brake. Gradually open the
throttle while you slowly release the clutch
lever.
Depress the shift lever from neutral down to
first gear.
To start riding, after the engine has been
warmed and the side stand raised:
Close the throttle and pull the front brake
lever in.
Pull the clutch lever all the way in.
Your motorcycle has six forward gears.
