TIP
Use "TCS" mode "Off" to help free the
rear wheel if the motorcycle gets stuck
in mud, sand, or other soft surfaces.
NOTICE
Use only the specified tires. (See
page 6-18.) Using different sized
tires will prevent the traction control
system from controlling tire rotation
accurately.

WARNING
Be sure to stop the vehicle before
making any setting changes to the
traction control system. Changing
settings while riding can distract the
operator and increase the risk of an
accident.
Push the traction control system switch
on the multi-function meter for less than
one second to change between "TCS"
modes "1" and "2". Push the switch for
at least two seconds to select "TCS"
mode "Off" and turn the traction control

Resetting
The traction control system will be dis-
abled in the following conditions:
●
The rear wheel is rotated with the
centerstand down and the key in
the "ON" position.
● Either the front wheel or rear wheel
comes off the ground while riding.
● Excessive rear wheel spinning
If the traction control system has been
disabled, both the traction control sys-
tem indicator/warning light and the en-
gine trouble warning light come on.
To reset the traction control system:
Turn the key to "OFF". Wait at least one
second, then turn the key back to "ON".
The traction control system indica-
tor/warning light should go off and the
system will be enabled. The engine
trouble warning light should go off after
the motorcycle reaches at least 20
km/h (12 mi/h). If the traction control
system indicator light/warning light
and/or engine trouble warning light still
remain on after resetting, the motorcy-
2
cle may still be ridden; however, have a
Yamaha dealer check the motorcycle
as soon as possible.
