FAQ

Is Y-AMT automatic?
You can ride in fully automatic or manually control gear changes using the buttons.

Can I still manually shift in automatic?
While in AT, you can still manually override gear changes - for example, downshifting to take a corner. A short while after, the AT system will kick back in again.

Do I still need a motorcycle licence?
Yes. You will still need an A licence. You can also restrict our MT-07 or Tracer 7 to be A2 licence compliant.

Can it stall?
No. The system manages revs to prevent stalling. It also has a protection for under-revving.
