Shifting gears
Shiftpoint lamp
The shiftpoint lamp 1 indicates
two engine speed thresholds to
the driver:
Standing-start engine rpm
At a stop, the shiftpoint lamp in-
dicates the ideal engine rpm for a
racing start.
Shiftpoint lamp off: engine rpm
too low
Shiftpoint lamp lit up: ideal rpm
for start
Shiftpoint lamp flashing: engine
rpm too high
Upshift rpm
During driving the shiftpoint lamp
indicates the speed at which the
rider should shift into the next-
highest gear.
Shiftpoint lamp flashes at
the preset frequency: engine
speed will soon reach upshift
rpm
Shiftpoint lamp goes out: shift-
ing speed reached.
The engine rpm limits and the
upshift lamp's display character-
istics can both be adjusted in the
SETUP menu.
Speed limit
If the shiftpoint lamp flashes or
lights up during operation while
! SPEED simultaneously ap-
pears in the display this means
that the preset speed has been
exceeded.
Gearshift assistant
Your motorcycle is equipped with
a shifting assistant developed
based on racing requirements. It
enables upshifting without actu-
ating the clutch or throttle valve
in virtually all load and engine
speed ranges. During accelera-
tion the throttle valve can remain
open, and the shifting time is re-
duced to a minimum. The gears
are shifted into as usual with foot
force on the shift lever.
