For any gearshift request (up or down) 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.
-
Ducati Quick Shift electronic shifting will not
activate when the clutch lever is pulled.
-
Ducati Quick Shift will shift down 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, a simple
key-off and key-on cycle will reactivate the
system.
-
Ducati Quick Shift is designed to operate above
2,500 rpm.
-
No matter the gear engaged, downshifting with
Ducati Quick Shift only woks below a set
threshold, so as to avoid exceeding the
maximum rpm allowed when the lower gear is
engaged.
-
It is not possible to downshift using the DQS
when the Cruise Control is on.
