desired direction with a normal
to brisk action and held in that
158
position until the gear change is
completed. A further increase of
the force applied to the gearshift
lever during the gear-shift op-
eration is not necessary. After
the gear change is completed,
the gear lever must be fully re-
leased before the Pro gearshift
assistant can execute a new gear
change. The load factor (throt-
tle grip position) should remain
constant both prior to and dur-
ing execution of shifts using the
Pro gearshift assistant. Changing
z
the accelerator twist-grip posi-
tion during the gear-shift oper-
ation may cause the function to
abort and/or the gear change to
fail. The Pro gearshift assistant
does not provide support when
gear changes are made using the
clutch.
Downshifts
Downshifts are assisted up to
the speed at which the engine
reaches maximum rpm in the
gear to be engaged. Over-
revving is thus prevented.
Maximum engine speed
-1
max 9000 min
Upshifts
Upshifting is only possible if
the current RPM is higher than
the release threshold for the
next higher gear.
This prevents the idling speed
from being dropped below.

ing temperature)
