Gear lever

The N (neutral) position is indicated by the warning light
on the instrument panel.
To change into first gear, push the lever down.
To change into second gear, lift the lever up. Lifting the
lever up repeatedly engages all the other gears in suc-
3
cession up to the sixth speed.
"Quick Shift" function
The Turismo Veloce model is equipped with a quick shift system that allows to increase or decrease the gear
ratio without pulling the clutch lever nor operating the throttle. This week, a higher or lower gear can be
engaged, keeping acceleration constant and minimising the gear changing time.
WARNING: The "Quick Shift" system is not available in the following conditions:
- when you change gear with the clutch lever pressed;
- when the vehicle travels at a speed lower than 30 km/h;
- if the gear lever is not in its proper starting position when changing gear.
Besides, when you are riding the vehicle with the engine revving high in a low gear, changing gear
without operating the clutch lever can cause abrupt reactions which can compromise the stability
of the vehicle. MV Agusta recommends to operate the clutch lever in all the above circum-
stances, especially when the engine rpm is close to the rpm-limiter intervention speed.
