Downshifting
Downshifting is assisted until
maximum rpm for the tar-
get gear to be selected is
reached. This prevents over-
reving.
Maximum engine speed
max 9000 min
Upshifting
Upshifting is only possible
when the current speed is
higher than the respective re-
lease threshold of the next
higher gear.
This prevents the engine from
dropping below idle speed.

HILL START CONTROL
Hill Start Control function
Hill Start Control assistant
prevents the motorcycle from
rolling backwards uncontrolled
on gradients by intervening
specifically with the ABS brake
system without the driver
having to constantly operate
the brake lever. Pressure in
the rear brake system is built
up when Hill Start Control is
activated in order to keep the
motorcycle stationary on an
incline.
The brake pressure in the
brake system is dependent on
the gradient.
Effect of an incline on brake
pressure and drive-off
behaviour
If the motorcycle is stopped
on a gentle incline, only low
brake pressure is built up.
In this case, the brakes are
quickly released when driv-
ing off. The motorcycle can
be moved off more gently. It
