Activating traction control
Info
The traction control reduces excessive slip on the rear wheel in favor of more control and propulsion,
particularly in wet conditions.
When traction control is switched off, the rear wheel may spin more during high acceleration and on sur-
faces with low grip.
Traction control can be switched on or off during the ride.
The setting most recently selected is activated again when restarting.
F03760-11
Activating the Factory Start
Warning
Danger of accidents The Factory Start actuator may freeze up in cold weather.
If the actuator freezes while Factory Start is activated, the fork will not decompress fully.
The greatly reduced suspension travel impairs the handling characteristic.
–
Check that the actuator moves easily before activating the Factory Start.
–
Activate the Factory Start shortly before starting.
Info
The launch control is deactivated automatically for a
few seconds after the vehicle has started.
Launch control is also deactivated in the following
cases: if the throttle valve is closed more than 1/3 of
the way after full throttle, and/or if there is no start
within 3 minutes.
For safety reasons, the engine must be switched off
for at least 10 seconds before the launch control can
be activated again, regardless of whether the vehicle
has been started or not.
If the engine has already been running for some time,
the engine must first be restarted before the launch
control can be activated.
–
Press the TC button 1 to switch traction control on or off.
