Automatic
The turn indicators switch automatically the

Turn indicators also switch automatically if they
remained on for a long mileage (which can range
between 200 and 2000 metres (656-6562 feet),
depending on vehicle speed when the turn indicator
was pressed.
If the turn indicator switch is again operated, while
turn indicator is still on, automatic feature
is re-initialised.
The automatic deactivation systems are assist
systems helping the rider control the turn indicators
in the most and easy way. Such systems
have been designed to work in most riding
manoeuvres, nonetheless the rider must pay
to the turn indicator operation (disabling
or enabling them by hand if needed).
