PART 2
Have your youngster practice shifting with the
engine off. The shift lever, clutch lever (if equiped),
and throttle control work together to move the
motorcycle. When shifting to first gear from neutral
the throttle is closed, the clutch lever is squeezed,
and the front brake is applied before moving the shift
lever into first gear. When starting out, the front
brake is released. The throttle is gradually opened
while the clutch is slowly released. If the clutch is
released too quickly, or too much throttle is applied,
the motorcycle may lunge forward causing loss of
control. With the engine off, have your youngster
practice upshifts, downshifts, and locating neutral.
SPEED LIMITERS
(supervisor control feature)
Some models come equipped with a removable
exhaust restrictor, or another feature which reduces
maximum speed. Refer to your owner’s manual or
talk to your dealer about this.
