KICK STARTER LEVER
The kick starter lever is located on the right side of
the vehicle. To start the vehicle, keep the ignition
and engine cut off switch in 'ON' condition. With
the transmission in neutral, keep your foot on the
lever extension and kick from top and stroke to
bottom with rapid motion.
Note
It is recommended to start the vehicle always in
ON
neutral gear. However, the vehicle can be started in
any gear after depressing the clutch lever.
GEAR SHIFT LEVER
Apache RTR 180 is equipped with a 5 speed
constant mesh transmission. Press the gear shift
lever down or lift up with the left foot toe to engage
the gears. After selecting a gear, the gear shift
lever will return to its normal position, ready to
select the next gear.
Each time shifting into the higher gears one by one
from neutral position is accomplished by
depressing the clutch lever and pressing the gear
shift lever (for first gear) or lifting the gear shift
lever (for remaining gears) up once for each gear.
