Launch control

The Launch Control assists the rider in optimally starting the motorcycle at the beginning of a race. The maximum speed of the engine
with the throttle valve fully opened (full throttle) is reduced. After the start, it is gradually increased up to the maximum engine speed.
Throughout this procedure, the rider opens the throttle fully and the best possible acceleration is achieved.
The clutch must be activated exactly as it would be without an active Launch Control.
The Launch Control is deactivated in the following cases (FI warning lamp (MIL) no longer flashes):
–
After full throttle, the throttle valve was closed by more than 1/3 of the way.
–
There is no start within 3 minutes.
Info
Several seconds after the vehicle starts, Launch Control is deactivated automatically.
