Tips for Additional Practice
– You can gradually increase
speed as you get comfort-
able to 16 km/h - 19 km/h
(10MPH-12MPH)fortheweaves,
but slow down for the U-turns at the
ends.
7) Shifting
When riding, you must change gears
to match the engine speed with road
speed. Lower gears are used for lower
speeds and higher gears are used for
higher speeds, just like on a manual
transmission car or truck.
The SE5 will not allow you to upshift if
the engine speed is too low. The SE5
will automatically downshift if the en-
gine speed drops under 1800 RPM.
Purpose
– Learn to upshift and downshift.
