9.6 Activating the quickshifter (All EXC‑F SIX DAYS models)
When the quickshifter is activated, you can shift up without actu-
ating the clutch.
Info
The quickshifter is not activated when shifting up from first
to second gear, and the clutch lever must be used when
shifting up instead.
Even if the quickshifter is activated, you need to use the
clutch lever to shift down.
Because there is no need to close the throttle grip, uninterrupted
gear shifts are possible.
The quickshifter uses the shifter shaft position to check whether or
not a shift should be initiated, and sends a corresponding signal to
the engine control.
If the quickshifter is deactivated, the clutch needs to be actuated
in the normal way for each shift.
