GEAR SHIFTING

A non-cycling mode of gear shifting is employed for this motorcycle.

Reduce throttle before shifting. Never increase throttle while shifting gears.

Do not place your foot on gear-shifting pedal while operating dirt bike to avoid

damaging the clutch caused by sudden accidental gear shifting.

Legend for the right figure:
(N) Neutral gear

(1) 1st gear

(2) 2nd gear

(3) 3rd gear

(4) 4th gear

Points for Attention during Drive

1. Avoid unnecessary idling of engine at a high speeds. Doing so will damage

engine components seriously.

2. The clutch will wear out quickly if dirt bike is operated with clutch in a semi-

engaged position.

3. Only shift to low speed gears when you feel that there is insufficient power to

climb hills or continue forward.

4. Do not use front brake only or coast using neutral gear especially when

descending or driving at a high speed.

5. Decrease throttle when braking.
