OPERATION
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 loss of control of the motorcycle.
WARNING
The motorcycle is equipped with a six-speed transmission. The
sixth gear is overdrive.
TOE SHIFT PEDAL: Shift to a higher gear by lifting the front
of the pedal with your toe. To shift to a lower gear, depress 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 (clutch lever
released). With the ignition switch set to the ON position, the
neutral indicator illuminates when the transmission is in
neutral.
