Gear lever

The N (neutral) position is indicated by the warn-
ing 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 succession up to the sixth speed.
"Quick Shift" function
The Dragster 800 model is equipped with a "Quick
Shift" gear change system; this device enables
you to upshift without pulling the clutch or chang-
ing the throttle control angle. This way, it is possi-
ble to change into upper gears by keeping a con-
stant acceleration and reducing shifting time to a
minimum. The "Quick Shift" system is not avail-
able when you change gear with the clutch lever
pressed or at a speed lower than 30 km/h, nor
when shifting into lower gears.
CONTROLS AND INSTRUMENTS

WARNING: When you are riding the vehi-
cle with the engine revving high in a low
gear, changing gear without operating
the clutch lever can cause abrupt reac-
tions which can compromise the stability
of the vehicle. MV Agusta recommends
to operate the clutch lever in these cir-
cumstances, especially when the engine
rpm is close to the rpm-limiter interven-
tion speed.
