Tips on how to select the sensitivity level
Warning
The DTC level 1 setting has been calibrated
using the tyres with SC2 compound (Pirelli Diablo
Supercorsa SC2) that are not those originally supplied
with your motorcycle. The use of this level with tyres
having different characteristics may alter the
operating characteristics of the system.
Warning
The DTC level 7 setting has been calibrated
using Rain tyres (Pirelli Diablo Rain with size 190/60
ZR17 at the rear) that are not those originally supplied
with your motorcycle. The use of this level with tyres
having different characteristics may alter the
operating characteristics of the system.
Warning
The DTC levels 2-3-4-5-6-8 settings have been
calibrated using the tyres originally supplied with your
motorcycle (Pirelli Diablo Rosso Corsa: 120/70ZR17 at
the front and 180/60ZR17 at the rear). The use of tyres
of different size and characteristics to the original
tyres may alter the operating characteristics of the
system.
In the case of minor differences, such as for example,
tyres of a different make and/or model than the OE
ones, but with the same size (rear = 180/60ZR17;
front = 120/70 ZR17), it may be sufficient to simply
select the suitable level setting from those available in
order to restore optimal system operation.
If tyres of a different size class are used or if the tyre
size differs significantly from the original tyres, 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 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
