TIPTraveling speed decreases as soon as
the cruise control system is deactivat-
ed; unless the throttle grip is turned.Usin g the resume function
Push the “RES+” side of the cruise
control setting switch to reactivate the
cruise control system. The traveling
speed will return to the previously set
cruising speed. The “SET” indicator
light will come on.
WARNING
EWA16351
It is d angerous to use the resume
function when the previously set
cruisin g speed is too hi gh for current
con ditions.
TIPPushing the power switch while the
system is operating will turn the sys-
tem off completely and erase the previ-
ously set cruising speed. You will not
be able to use the resume function until
a new cruising speed has been set.Automatic deactivation of the cruisecontrol systemThe cruise control system for this mod-
el is electronically controlled and is
linked with the other control systems.
The cruise control system will auto-
matically become deactivated under
the following conditions:
The cruise control system is not
able to maintain the set cruising
speed.
Wheel slip or wheel spin is detect-
ed. (If the traction control system
has not been turned off, the trac-
tion control system will work.)
The start/engine stop switch is set
to the “ ” position.
The engine stalls.
The sidestand is lowered. When traveling with a set cruising
speed, if the cruise control system is
deactivated under the above condi-
tions, the “ ” indicator light will go off
and the “SET” indicator light will flash
for 4 seconds, and then go off.
When not traveling with a set cruising
speed, if the start/engine stop switch is
set to the “ ” position, the engine
stalls, or the sidestand is lowered, then
the “ ” indicator light will go off (the
“SET” indicator light will not flash).
If the cruise control system is automat-
ically deactivated, please stop and
confirm that your vehicle is in good op-
erating condition.
Before using the cruise control system
again, activate it using the power
switch.
TIPIn some cases, the cruise control sys-
tem may not be able to maintain the set
cruising speed when the vehicle is
traveling uphill or downhill.
When the vehicle is traveling up-
hill, the actual traveling speed may
become lower than the set cruis-

D-mo de ( drive mo de)D-mode is an electronically controlled
engine performance system with three
mode selections: “STD”, “A”, and “B”.
Push the drive mode switch “MODE”
to switch between modes. (See page
3-4.)TIPBefore using D-mode, make sure you
understand its operation along with the
operation of the drive mode switch.Mo de “STD”
Mode “STD” is suitable for various rid-
ing conditions. This mode allows the rider to enjoy
smooth and sporty drivability from the
low-speed range to the high-speed
range.
Mo
de “A”
Mode “A” offers a sportier engine re-
sponse in the low- to mid-speed range
compared to mode “STD”.
Mo de “B”
Mode “B” offers response that is
somewhat less sharp compared to
mode “STD” for riding situations that
require especially sensitive throttle op-
eration.

Clutch leverThe clutch lever is located on the left
side of the handlebar. To disengage
the clutch, pull the lever toward the
handlebar grip. To engage the clutch,
release the lever. The lever should be
pulled rapidly and released slowly for

Shift pe dalThe shift pedal is located on the left
side of the engine. To shift the trans-
mission to a higher gear, move the shift
pedal up. To shift the transmission to a
lower gear, move the shift pedal down.
(See page 5-2.)TIPWhen the quick shift system is turned
on, the shift switch senses shift pedal
movement and allows for upshifting
without operating the clutch lever.
EAU84330
Quick shift systemThe quick shift system (QS) allows for
full-throttle, clutch lever-less, electron-
ically-assisted upshifts. When the shift
switch detects motion in the shift pedal
(page 3-26), engine power and drive
torque are momentarily adjusted to al-
low the upshift to occur.TIP The quick shift system operates
when traveling at least 20 km/h (12
mi/h) with an engine speed of
2300 r/min or higher, and only
when accelerating.
It does not operate when the
clutch lever is pulled.
EAU26826
Brake leverThe brake lever is located on the right
side of the handlebar. To apply the
front brake, pull the lever toward the
throttle grip.
The brake lever is equipped with a
brake lever position adjusting dial. To
adjust the distance between the brake
lever and the throttle grip, slightly pull
the brake lever away from the throttle
grip and rotate the adjusting dial. Make
sure the setting number on the adjust-
ing dial aligns with the match mark on
the brake lever.

Ig nition circuit cut-off systemThis system prevents in-gear engine
starts unless the clutch lever is pulled
and the sidestand is up. Also, it will
stop the running engine should the
sidestand be lowered while the trans-
mission is in gear.
Periodically check this system via the
following procedure.TIP This check is most reliable if per-
formed with a warmed-up engine.
See pages 3-2 and 3-3 for switch
operation information.
