See Figure 25. Gear Shift pattern is first gear down, next five
gears up. Refer to table 15 for downshifting speeds.
NOTE
The shifting speeds shown in the tables are a
recommendation. Vehicle owners may determine that
individual shifting habits differ from those stated and remain
appropriate for individual riding styles.
See Table 16. When engine speed decreases, as in climbing a
hill or running at reduced speed, shift to the next lower gear
by pushing he shift lever down once while partially closing the
throttle so the engine accelerates as soon as the clutch lever
is released.
NOTES

change.
• Partially close the throttle so the engine will not drag

can be damaged by shifting gears while engine is stopped.
The gear shift mechanism permits shifting the transmission to
neutral from first gear.

Traction Control

Traction Control is a riding tool, but final control of the vehicle
is in the rider's hands. Traction Control will not prevent
accidents. Always ride within your limits. Failure to do so
could result in death or serious injury
The traction control system on the EBR 1190RX/SX is a tool
for the rider to enhance safety by helping control wheel slip
on the rear wheel when excessive torque is applied for the
given dynamic traction available. It also implements a power
reduction for high throttle application in low gears in
anticipation of conditions which could cause a wheel slip event
or a wheelie event.
