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 surfaces with
low grip.
Traction control can be switched on or off during the ride.
The setting most recently selected is activated again when restarting.
