suzuki eiger 4x4 help?

[Geronimo]

This is my first atv with an automatic transmission and I' m asking anyone to enlighten me about how these transmissions work. The first time I rode my new atv I noticed that there wasn' t any shifting. Is this normal for this Quadmatic transmission with a v-belt,continuously variable-ratio design with a centrifugal automatic clutch?

Yes that is normal.You won' t notice any shifting because you have a belt drive and not a true automatic transmission.Only honda has true automatic transmissions.

Thanks, stubblejumper I thought I might have bought an atv with a faulty transmission!
