• Recommended procedure for finding best setting:
  1. enter calibration mode and set bite-point to high value, e.g. 80 %
  2. pull slave clutch only
  3. apply throttle

  5. make test starts to fine tune desired bite-point setting
  6. exit bite-point calibration mode
• Recommended procedure for quick race starts
  1. pull both master and slave clutches
  2. apply throttle
