Shifting Gears
Take care to avoid opening the throttle
too far or too fast in any of the lower
gears as this can lead to the front
wheel lifting from the ground (pulling a
'wheelie') and to the rear tire breaking
traction (wheel spin).
Always open the throttle cautiously,
particularly if you are unfamiliar with
the motorcycle, as a 'wheelie' or loss of
traction will cause loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
The
Do not shift to a lower gear at speeds
that will cause excessive engine rpm
(r/min).
This can lock the rear wheel causing
loss of control and an accident. Engine
damage may also be caused.
Shifting down should be done such
that low engine speeds will be ensured.
For models equipped with Triumph Shift
Assist (TSA), see page 123.
