Changing Gears
Warning
Take care to avoid opening the throttle
too far or too fast in any of the lower
gears as this can lead to the front
wheel lifting from the ground (pulling a
'wheelie') and to the rear tyre breaking
traction (wheel spin).
Always open the throttle cautiously,
particularly if you are unfamiliar with
the motorcycle, as a 'wheelie' or loss of
traction will cause loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
Warning
Do not change to a lower gear at
speeds that will cause excessive
engine rpm (r/min). This can lock the
rear wheel causing loss of control and
an accident. Engine damage may also
be caused. Changing down should be
done such that low engine speeds will
be ensured.

1. Gear change pedal (6 speed shown)
Close the throttle while pulling in the
clutch lever. Change into the next
higher or lower gear. Open the throttle
part way, while releasing the clutch
lever. Always use the clutch when
changing gear.
Note:
• The gear change mechanism is the
'positive stop' type. This means
that, for each movement of the
gear change pedal/lever, you can
only select each gear, one after the
other, in ascending or descending
order.
