The shift pedal is located on the left
side of the motorcycle and is used in
combination with the clutch lever when
shifting the gears of the 6-speed con-
stant-mesh transmission.
When the quick-shift system is turned
on, the shift switch senses shift pedal
movement and allows for upshifting
without operating the clutch lever. See
