Tips on how to select the sensitivity level
Attention
The DTC level 1 setting has been calibrated
using tires with SC2 compound (Pirelli Diablo
Supercorsa SC2), which are not originally supplied
with your motorcycle. The use of this level with tires
having different characteristics may alter the
operating characteristics of the system.
Attention
The DTC level 7 setting has been calibrated
using Rain tires (Pirelli Diablo Rain with size 190/55
ZR17 at the rear) which are not originally supplied
with your motorcycle. The use of this level with tires
having different characteristics may alter the
operating characteristics of the system.

Attention
The DTC levels 2-3-4-5-6-8 settings have been
calibrated using the tires originally supplied with your
motorcycle (Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP 120/70ZR17
at the front and 200/55ZR17 at the rear). Using tires
with different size and characteristics from the
original tires may alter the operating characteristics of
the system.
In the case of minor differences, such as tires of a
different make and/or model than the OE ones, but
with the same size (rear = 200/55 ZR17; front =
120/70 ZR17), it may be sufficient to select the
suitable level setting from those available in order to
restore optimal system operation.
If tires of a different size class are used or if the tire
dimensions differ significantly from the original tires,
it may be that the system operation is affected to the
point where none of the 8 available level settings will
give satisfactory results. In this case is it is advisable
to deactivate the traction control system.
If level 8 is selected, the DTC system will kick in at
the slightest hint that the rear wheel is starting to
spin. Between level 8 and level 1 there are further
intermediate levels of intervention for the DTC.
Levels 1, 2 and 3 allow the rear wheel to spin and
