QSS (if equipped)The quick shift system allows for clutch
lever-less, electronically-assisted shift-
ing. When the sensor on the shift rod
detects the appropriate motion in the
shift pedal, engine power output is mo-
mentarily adjusted to allow for the gear
change to occur.
QSS does not operate when the clutch
lever is pulled, therefore normal shifting
can be done even when QSS is set to
on. Check the QS indicator for current
status and usability information.
Upshifting  conditions
 Vehicle speed of at least 20 km/h
(12 mi/h)
 Engine speed of at least 2200
r/min
 Accelerating (open throttle)
Downshiftin g con ditions 
Vehicle speed of at least 20 km/h
(12 mi/h)
 Engine speed of at least 2000
r/min
 Engine speed sufficiently away
from red zone
 Decelerating and throttle fully-
closed
TIPQS   and QS   can be individ-
ually set.
 Shifting into or out of neutral must
be done using the clutch lever.

BCThe brake control system regulates hy-
draulic brake pressure for the front and
rear wheels when the brakes are ap-
plied and wheel lock is detected. This
system has two settings.
BC1 is standard ABS, which adjusts
brake pressure based on vehicle
speed and wheel speed data. BC1 is
designed to engage and maximize
braking when the vehicle is upright.
BC2 uses additional data from the IMU
to regulate applied brake power when
cornering to suppress lateral wheel
slip.

WARNING
EWA16051
Always keep a sufficient d istance
from the vehicle ahea d to match the
ri din g speed  even with ABS.
 The ABS performs  best with
lon g b rakin g d istances.
 On certain surfaces, such as
rou gh or g ravel roa ds, the b rak-
in g d istance may  be lon ger with
the ABS than without.The ABS hydraulic unit is monitored by
the ABS ECU, which will revert the sys-
tem to conventional braking if a mal-
function occurs.
WARNING
EWA20891
The  brake control system is not a
su bstitute for the use of proper ri d-
in g an d  brakin g techniques. The
b rake control system cannot pre-
vent all loss of traction  due to over-
b rakin g from excessive spee d, or
lateral wheel slip when  brakin g on
slippery surfaces.
TIPThe ABS performs a self-diagnostic
test when the vehicle is started and
reaches a speed of 5 km/h (3 mi/h).
During this test, a clicking noise may
be audible from the hydraulic control
unit, and a vibration may be felt at the
brake lever or pedal, but this is normal.NOTICE

wise, improper performance of the
