Abstract
A method for carrying out a shifting operation in a sequential manual transmission, in particular a shifting claw transmission, is provided. During the shifting operation, a maximum clutch torque that can be transmitted by a clutch arranged between an engine and a transmission input shaft is automatically reduced without completely disengaging the clutch, and a rider-required drive torque is maintained in a manner which reduces undesired jerking movement of the vehicle due to sudden full clutch actuation.
