Adjustment options
Using the electronic suspension
adjustment Dynamic ESA you
can conveniently adjust your mo-
torcycle to the load.
Using leveling sensors, Dynamic
ESA detects movements of the
running gear and responds to
them by adjusting the damper
valves. As a result, the running
gear is adjusted to the conditions
of the ground.
Based on the NORMAL default
setting, damping can be addition-
ally adjusted harder (HARD) or
softer (SOFT).
with Pro riding modes
OE
The running gear adjustment as
well as the number of selectable
damping variants depend on the
selected riding mode. Damping
set by the riding mode can be
changed by the rider.
If the coding plug is not installed,
the default set by the riding
mode is set after every mode
change. If the coding plug is
installed, the rider's adjustments
for every mode are maintained.
