– Shift into a higher gear when conditions allow (incline, road
situation, etc.).
– Release the throttle while simultaneously pulling the clutch
lever, shift into the next gear, release the clutch lever, and
open the throttle.
Info
You can see the positions of the 6 forward gears in
the figure. The idle position is between the first and
second gears. First gear is used for starting off or for
steep inclines.
– Accelerate only up to a speed suitable for the road surface
and weather conditions. Particularly in bends, do not shift,
and accelerate very carefully.
– Brake if necessary and close the throttle at the same time in
order to shift down.
– Pull the clutch lever and shift into a lower gear, release the
clutch lever slowly, and open the throttle or shift again.
– Switch off the engine if running at idle or stationary for a long
time.
– After reaching maximum speed by fully opening the throt-
tle grip, turn the throttle back so it is ¾ open. This will barely
reduce the speed but fuel consumption will be considerably
lower.
