NOTE: When the transmission is in neutral,
the green indicator light on the instrument
panel will be lit. However, even though the
light is lit, cautiously and slowly release the
clutch lever to make sure that the transmis-
sion is positively in neutral.
Reduce your road speed before down-shift-
ing. When down-shifting, the engine speed
should be increased before the clutch is
engaged. This will prevent unnecessary
wear on the drive train components and rear
tire.
REAR BRAKE PEDAL
Depressing the rear brake pedal will apply
the rear brake. The brake light will come on
when the rear brake is operated.
