General Information

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
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.
Note:
• 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.
