Attention
DTC is a rider aid that can be used both on the
track and the road. The system is designed to make
riding easier and to enhance safety, but in no way
relieves the rider of the obligation to drive responsibly
and to maintain a high standard of riding in order to
avoid accidents, whether caused by his own errors or
those of other road users, through making
emergency manoeuvres, in accordance with the
prescriptions of the road traffic code.
The rider must always be aware that active safety
systems have a preventive function. The active
elements help the rider control the motorcycle,
making it as easy and safe to ride as possible. The
presence of an active safety system should not
encourage the rider to ride at speeds beyond the
reasonable limits, not in accordance with road
conditions, the laws of physics, good riding standards
and traffic laws.
The following table indicates the most suitable level
of DTC intervention for the various riding modes, as
well as the default settings in the "Riding Mode" that
can be selected by the rider.
