Gearshift Lever - HYOSUNG GV 250 EFI Owner's Manual

GEARSHIFT LEVER

has a 5-speed transmission
which operates as shown.
To shift properly, pull the clutch lever and
close the throttle at the same time you
operate the gearshift lever. Whenever a
gear is selected, the gearshift lever will
return to its normal position ready to select
the next gear.
Lift the gearshift lever to upshift and
depress the lever to downshift.
Neutral is located between first and 2nd
gear.
When neutral is desired, depress or lift
the lever halfway between first and 2nd
gear.
It is not possible to upshift or downshift
more than one gear at a time.
When shifting from first to 2nd gear or
2nd gear to low, neutral will be
automatically skipped.
Reduce the motorcycle speed before
down-shifting.
When down-shifting, the engine speed
should be increased before the clutch is
engaged.
This will prevent unnecessary wear on
the drive train components and the rear tire.
CAUTION
When the transmission is in neutral the
green indicator lamp on the instrument
panel will be lit.
However, even though the lamp is
illuminated, cautiously release the
clutch lever slowly to determine whether
the transmission is positively in neutral.
