SHIFTERS
Two dierent kinds of shifters are used
at the Birdy.
Twist grip
Rotating the right grip towards the driver
leads to an easier gear and rotating the
left grip away from the driver leads to an
easier gear. The grip indicates which gear
you are currently using. The shifter transmits
the commands to the transmission via the
Bowden cable.
Rapid Fire shifter
The thumb on the left side shifts to harder
gears and on the right side, easier gears. The
index finger on each sides shifts in the other
direction.
Practice shifting in a trac-free
area so that you can become
familiar with the rotation of the
shifters and pressing the levers.
The practice area should be free
of potential hazards.
DANGER!
