NOTE:
• Operating the Suzuki drive mode
selector while riding with the throttle
opened will change the engine
speed because of the change in
engine power characteristics.
• The Suzuki drive mode selector indi-
cator blinks when the drive mode
change operation has failed.
• When the mode is to be changed, do
it with the throttle closed. When the
throttle is opened, mode change is
unavailable.
• If the mode cannot be switched, the
indicator blinks when the select
switch 2 is pressed.
TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM
When the traction control system
senses rear wheel spin during accelera-
tion, it automatically controls engine
power output to restore the gripping
power of the rear tire. The traction con-
trol indicator light “TC” blinks when the
traction control system is controlling
engine power output.
