Quick shift systemThe quick shift system (QS) allows for
full-throttle, clutch lever-less, electron-
ically-assisted upshifts. When the shift
switch detects motion in the shift ped-
al, engine power and drive torque are
momentarily adjusted to allow the up-
shift to occur.TIP QS operates when traveling at
least 20 km/h (12 mi/h) with an en-
gine speed of 4000 r/min or high-
er, and only when accelerating.
QS does not operate when the
clutch lever is pulled.To turn the system off1. Turn the main switch off.
2. Move the shift pedal upward so
that the shift rod is partially re-
tracted into the shift switch, and
hold it in that position. 3. Turn the main switch on, and after
10 seconds release the shift ped-
al.
