Traction Control (TC)
Warning
Traction control is not a substitute for
riding appropriately for the prevailing
road and weather conditions.
The traction control cannot prevent
loss of traction due to:
- Excessive speed when entering turns
- Accelerating at a sharp lean angle
- Braking
- Traction control cannot prevent the
front wheel from slipping.
Failure to observe any of the above
may result in loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
Traction control helps to maintain
traction when accelerating on wet/
slippery road surfaces. If sensors detect
that the rear wheel is losing traction
(slipping), the traction control system
will engage and alter the engine power
until traction to the rear wheel has been
restored. The traction control warning
light will flash while it is engaged and
the rider may notice a change to the
sound of the engine. Traction control
will not function if there is a malfunction
with the ABS system. The warning lights
for the ABS, traction control and the
MIL will be illuminated.
Note

Traction control is switched off when in
OFF ROAD mode.
