Shifting Gears
The clutch must be fully disengaged (clutch lever pulled completely in toward the handlebars)
before you attempt to shift gears. Forced shifting (shifting without the clutch disengaged) may
damage the engine, transmission, and drive train, causing you to lose control of the motorcycle.
WARNING
The motorcycle is equipped with a five--speed transmission.
The gear pattern is shown in the illustration to the right. The
motorcycle has a heel--toe shift pedal which allows you to shift
to a higher gear by depressing the rear of the pedal with your
heel or by lifting the front of the pedal with your toe. To shift
to a lower gear, depress the front of the pedal with your toe.
Neutral position is between first and second gear. The
transmission is in neutral when the motorcycle moves forward
or backward freely while the clutch is engaged. With the
Ignition switch set to the On position, the neutral indicator
illuminates when the transmission is in neutral.
