For any gearshift request (upshifting or
downshifting) the rider has to move the shift
lever from its idle position in the desired
direction against the force of the spring through
a certain over-travel, then keep the shift lever in
this position until the gearshift is completed.
Once the gearshift has been completed, the
lever has to be fully released in order to allow
another gearshift acted by Ducati Quick Shift. If
the rider does not move the shift lever up to end
stroke during a Ducati Quick Shift request, gears
may not be fully engaged.
-
Ducati Quick Shift provides no assistance for the
gearshift if the rider uses the clutch lever: the
Ducati Quick Shift does not work when the
clutch lever is pulled.
-
Ducati Quick Shift will shift down (downshifting)
only when the throttle control is completely
closed.
-
If the Ducati Quick Shift strategy does not work
it is always possible to complete the gear
shifting using the clutch lever.
-
If the gear lever is held pressed up or down for
more than 30 seconds (even if just by accident) a
plausibility error can be memorised in the
electronic control unit and the Ducati Quick
Shift system could be disabled; in this case, to
reactivate the system, it is necessary to release
the lever, switch the instrument panel off, wait
for 5 minutes and switch the instrument panel
on again.
-
Ducati Quick Shift is designed to operate above
2,500 rpm.
-
No matter the gear engaged, downshifting with
Ducati Quick Shift (downshifting) only woks
below a set threshold, so as to avoid exceeding
the maximum rpm allowed when the lower gear
is engaged.
