The instantaneous fuel economy
function should be used for gener-
al reference only. Do not use this
figure to estimate the distance that
can be traveled on the current tankof fuel.
Air temperature:
The air temperature is displayed from
–9 C (16 F) to 50 C (122 F) in 1 C
(1 F) increments. The temperature dis-

Shift pedalThe shift pedal is located on the left
side of the motorcycle. To shift the
transmission to a higher gear, move the
shift pedal up. To shift the transmission
to a lower gear, move the shift pedal
down. (See page 6-3.)

sensor, which is part of the quick shift-
er. The shift sensor reads up and down
movement, as well as the strength of
the input force when the shift pedal is
moved.TIPTo prevent unintended shifts, the quick shifter is programmed to ignore unclear
input signals. Therefore, be sure to shift
using quick and sufficiently forceful in-
puts.

lever and the throttle grip, turn the ad-
justing knob while holding the lever
pushed away from the throttle grip.
