This motorcycle is equipped with a safety starting sys-
tem. You can only start the engine if the transmission
is in neutral or if the clutch lever is pulled when a gear
is engaged. If the side stand is folded out and you shift
into gear and release the clutch lever, the engine stops.
10.3 Starting off
– Pull the clutch lever, engage 1st gear, release the clutch lever slowly and simultaneously open the throttle
carefully.
10.4 Quickshifter + (optional)
V01270-10
If the quickshifter + is activated, you can shift up and down with-
out actuating the clutch.
Because there is no need to close the throttle grip, uninterrupted
gear shifts are possible.
The quickshifter + uses the shifter shaft position to check whether
or not a shift should be initiated, and sends a corresponding signal
to the engine control.
If the quickshifter + is disabled in the combination instrument,
the clutch needs to be actuated in the normal way for each shift.
