You must have noticed that in your motorcycle, the first gear is down and the rest gears are all up, with the neutral gear placed between the first and second gear. The reasons are more ergonomic than technical for such a placement.
So, what are the reasons why the first gear is down in a motorcycle and the neutral gear is between the first and second gears?
This topic has always grabbed the attention of biker’s enthusiasts that why in almost all new bikes the gearboxes are becoming “1 Down 4 Up gear shift pattern” or “1 Down 5 Up gear shift pattern”. It has been seen that sequential gearboxes are favourite for motorcycles as they occupy less space and makes it easy to change gear while riding.While earlier these sequential type gearboxes were having a changing sequence of all gear up type, which is nowadays replaced to 1 down 4 up gear shift pattern.
