Riding, gear shifts

Engine speed

Choose engine speeds in accord-

ance with the coolant temperature

reading, and do not use maximum

engine speeds until the engine

has reached its regular operating

temperature.

When the revolution counter

needle enters the red zone on the

dial, the fuel supply is interrupted

in order to protect the engine

against overspeeding, as you will

notice because the engine

“stutters”.

d Warning:

Never run the engine with the

needle of the revolution counter

in the red zone.

Load changes

d Warning:

Try not to open or close the

throttle abruptly, particularly on

wet or slippery roads.

Gear shifts

L Note:

Never slip the clutch excessively

when changing gear. Vary your

speed only by using the throttle in

a suitable gear, not by slipping the

clutch.

The digital cockpit display shows

which gear has been selected

(

b 10).
