The DPL system is to be used exclusively on
straight and level paths, on optimal grip conditions
of the road.
The DPL system is conceived to be used within a
controlled environment or in a closed circuit. For
safety reasons it must not be used in unsuitable
places.
procedure
The procedure basically consists of two
phases:
●
The first: with not completely released clutch so
that the torque to the ground
depends on the clutch position and slipping;
●
The second: with clutch not released so that the
torque to the ground depends on
the torque delivered by the engine.
The DPL system helps the rider to from a
standstill and during the first phase by automatically
adjusting the torque delivered by the engine to keep
the engine rpm at the ideal value to This allows
the rider to concentrate only on the clutch release
that must be progressive and "smooth" instead of
fast or abruptly. The engine torque is adjusted also in
the second phase, by maximising the delivered
power and limiting the vehicle wheeling or rear
wheel slipping.
To preserve the clutch, the DPL system calculates in
real time and shows in the dedicated menu on the
instrument panel the number of that can be
consecutively by decreasing it by one unit
every time a is completed. The DPL system
increases the value by one unit according to the
distance covered by the vehicle and the time during
which the vehicle engine was on and
The DPL system allows other assisted
only when the number of remaining is
higher than zero.
Using the DPL system could reduce the useful
life of the engine and transmission mechanical
The DPL system should be used only when the
engine has reached the operating temperature.
To an assisted with the DPL, the rider
must first of all set the vehicle in the following
condition:
●
vehicle speed at zero;
●
position;
●
