Riding Mode Selection
Warning
The selection of riding modes whilst
the motorcycle is in motion requires
the rider to allow the motorcycle to
coast (motorcycle moving, engine run-
ning, throttle closed, clutch lever pulled
in and no brakes applied) for a brief pe-
riod of time.
Riding mode selection whilst the mo-
torcycle is in motion should only be
attempted:
- At low speed
- In traffic-free areas
- On straight and level roads or surfac-
es
- In good road and weather conditions
- Where it is safe to allow the motorcy-
cle to briefly coast.
Riding mode selection whilst the mo-
torcycle is in motion MUST NOT be
attempted:
- At high speeds
- Whilst riding in traffic
- During cornering or on winding roads
or surfaces
- On steeply inclined roads or surfaces
- In poor road/weather conditions
- Where it is unsafe to allow the mo-
torcycle to coast.
Failure to observe this important warn-
ing may lead to loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
Warning
If ABS and/or Traction Control (TC) has
been disabled in the Main Menu as de-
scribed on page 40 for ABS and/or
page 41 for TC then settings saved for
all riding modes will be overridden.
ABS and/or TC will remain off regard-
less of your riding mode selection until
they have been re-enabled or, the igni-
tion has been switched off then on
again, or the MODE button is held in to
return to the default ROAD mode
(which enables ABS and/or TC when
the motorcycle is next stationary).
If the ABS is disabled, the brake system
will function as a non-ABS equipped
braking system. In this situation brak-
ing too hard will cause the wheels to
lock, and may result in loss of motorcy-
cle control and an accident.
If the traction control is disabled, the
motorcycle will handle as normal but
without traction control. In this situa-
tion accelerating too hard on wet/
slippery road surfaces may cause the
rear wheel to slip, and may result in
loss of motorcycle control and an acci-
dent.
Warning
After selecting a riding mode, operate
the motorcycle in an area free from
traffic to gain familiarity with the new
settings.
Do not loan your motorcycle to anyone
as they may change the riding mode
settings from the one you are familiar
with, causing loss of motorcycle control
and an accident.
