Shifting Gears
VFR1200XD/XDA
Dual Clutch Transmission
In order to respond to rider demands in a
broad range of situations, the transmission is
equipped with three operating modes, AT
MODE (including D mode for regular
operation and three level of S mode for
sporty riding); and MT MODE (MT mode for a
6-speed manual operation), which delivers
the same shift feel as a manual transmission.
Always use the recommended tires and
u
sprockets to ensure correct the Dual Clutch
Transmission operation.
The Dual Clutch Transmission system runs a
self check immediately after starting the
engine.
"-" appears in the gear position indicator
window for a few seconds, then goes out.
While "-" appears, you cannot shift into
gear.
