9 RIDING INSTRUCTIONS
42
–
Shift into a higher gear when conditions allow (incline, road
situation, etc.).
–
Release the throttle while simultaneously pulling the clutch
lever, shift into the next gear, release the clutch lever, and
open the throttle.
Info
You can see the positions of the 6 forward gears in
the figure. The idle position is between the first and
second gears. First gear is used for starting off or for
401950-11
steep inclines.
–
After reaching maximum speed by fully opening the throt-
tle grip, turn the throttle back so it is ¾ open. This will barely
reduce the speed, but fuel consumption will be considerably
lower.
–
Accelerate only up to a speed suitable for the road surface
and weather conditions. Particularly in bends, do not shift,
and accelerate very carefully.
–
Brake if necessary and close the throttle at the same time in
order to shift down.
–
Pull clutch lever and shift into a lower gear, release the clutch
lever slowly, and open the throttle or shift again.
–
If the engine stalls (e.g. at an intersection), just pull the clutch
lever and press the start button. The transmission must not
be shifted into neutral.
–
Switch off the engine if running at idle speed or stationary for
a long time.
–
If the malfunction indicator lamp
stop immediately (taking care not to endanger yourself or
other road users in the process), switch off the engine, and
contact an authorized Husqvarna Motorcycles workshop.
–
If the general warning symbol begins to flash in the display
during the trip, several warnings have been detected.
Info
Warnings which have occurred are shown and saved
in the Info display until these are no longer active.
–
Using Easy Shift, you can shift up in the speed range shown
without pulling the clutch lever.
Info
The minimum engine speed before shifting up in revo-
lutions per minute is shown in the figure.
Pull the shift lever quickly back to the stop without
changing the throttle twist grip position.
