MULTI-FUNCTION DISPLAY
COLD STARTER KNOB
When cold, the engine requires a 
richer air-fuel mixture for starting. A 
separate starter circuit, which is con-
trolled by the cold starter knob "1", 
supplies this mixture. Pull the cold 
starter knob out to open the circuit for 
starting. When the engine has 
warmed up, push it in to close the cir-
cuit.
HOT STARTER LEVER
The hot starter lever "1" is used when 
starting a warm engine. Use the hot 
starter lever when starting the engine 
again immediately after it was 
stopped (the engine is still warm). 
Pulling the hot starter lever injects 
secondary air to thin the air-fuel mix-
ture temporarily, allowing the engine 
to be started more easily.
SIDESTAND
This sidestand "1" is used to support 
only the machine when standing or 
transporting it.
• Never apply additional force to the sidestand.
• Hold up the sidestand before 
starting out.
MULTI-FUNCTION DISPLAY
Be sure to stop the machine before 
making any setting changes to the 
multi-function display.
The multi-function display is 
equipped with the following:
BASIC MODE:
• Speedometer
•Clock
• Two tripmeters (which shows the distance that has been traveled 
since it was last set to zero)
RACE MODE:
• Timer (which shows the time that  has been accumulated since the 
start of timer measurement)
• Tripmeter (which shows the accu- mulated travel distance in timer 
measurement)
• Change tripmeter digits (capable of  change to any given ones)
DESCRIPTION
Operation buttons:
1. Select button "SLCT 1"

MULTI-FUNCTION DISPLAY
Changing odometer and tripmeter 
A/B (TRIP A/B)
1. Push the "SLCT2" button to change the tripmeter display. The 
display will change in the follow-
ing order:
Odometer  →TRIP A →TRIP B →
TRIP A →Odometer.
To reset the digits, select the tripme-
ter involved and push the "RST" but-
ton for 2 seconds or more.
CHANGEOVER TO BASIC MODE/
RACE MODE
• Measurement using the timer func-
tion can be made in RACE MODE.
• Indicator    will light up as an  identifier that shows RACE MODE 
has been selected.
• RACE MODE cannot display the  functions as in BASIC MODE.
• Changeover to RACE MODE forc-
es the digits for tripmeter A (TRIP 
A) in BASIC MODE to be reset.
Changeover from BASIC MODE to 
RACE MODE
1. Push the "SLCT1" button and  "SLCT2" button for 2 seconds or 
more at the same time to change 
over to RACE MODE.
Changeover to RACE MODE will put 
manual start measurement on stand-
by causing   and   to flash. (For 
manual start, refer to "Putting mea-
surement on standby" in "RACE 
MODE".)
Returning to BASIC MODE from 
RACE  MODE
It is possible to  return to BASIC 
MODE with timer measurement at a 
stop.
1. Check that the timer is not in op- eration. If the timer  is in operation, 
stop the timer by pushing the 
"SLCT1" button and "SLCT2" but-
ton at the same time.
2. Push the "SLCT1" button and  "SLCT2" button for 2 seconds or 
more at the same time to change 
over to BASIC MODE.
RACE MODE
Putting measurement on standby
Starting measurement  consists of the 
following two starts, either of which 
can be selected.
• Manual start
Starting measurement by the rider 
himself operating the button. (A long 
push on the "SLCT2" button will put 
measurement on standby.)
• Auto start
Starting timer measurement automat-
ically on detection of the movement of 
the machine. (A long push on the 
"SLCT1" button will put measurement 
on standby.)
Manual start
Initial setting at changeover to RACE 
MODE will remain for manual start.
1. Check that changeover to RACE 
MODE has been made. (Refer to 
"Changeover from BASIC MODE 
to RACE MODE".)
When the machine is made ready for 
a run by manual start,   and   will 
start flashing.
2. Start timer measurement by pushing the "RST" button.
3. When stopping timer measure- ment, pushing the "SLCT1" but-
ton and "SLCT2" button at the 
same time.
If the machine is run while timer mea-
surement is not made, no change will 
occur to the digit in tripmeter A (TRIP 
A).
4. To resume the measurement, again push the "SLCT1" button 
and "SLCT2" button at the same 
time.
Auto start
1. Check that changeover has been  made to RACE MODE. (Refer to 
"Changeover from BASIC MODE 
to RACE MODE".)
2. Make the machine ready for a run  by pushing the "SLCT1" button for 
2 seconds or more.
When the measurement is made 
ready for a run by auto start,   and  will start flashing. Timer display 
will turn on scrolling from left to right.

MULTI-FUNCTION DISPLAY
3. Run the machine and start timer measurement.
4. To stop timer measurement,  pushing the "SLCT1" button and 
"SLCT2" button at the same time.
If the machine is run while timer mea-
surement is not made, no change will 
occur to the digit in tripmeter A (TRIP 
A).
5. To resume the measurement, again pushing the "SLCT1" button 
and "SLCT2" button at the same 
time.
Resetting measurement data
Resetting can be made in the follow-
ing two manners. 
Resetting is possible while timer 
measurement is made:
• Reset tripmeter A.
Resetting is possible while timer 
measurement is not made:
• Reset tripmeter A and timer.
Resetting tripmeter A (TRIP A)
1. Check that the timer is in opera- tion. If the timer is not in opera-
tion, start the timer by pushing the 
"SLCT1" button and "SLCT2" but-
ton at the same time.
2. Reset tripmeter A (TRIP A) dis-
play by pushing the "RST" button 
for 2 seconds or more.
If reset,    and travel distance dis-
play will go on flashing for four sec-
onds.
Resetting tripmeter A (TRIP A) and 
timer
1. Check that the timer is not in op-eration. If the timer  is in operation, 
stop it by pushing the "SLCT1" 
button and "SLCT2" button at the 
same time.
2. Reset all measured data by push-
ing the "RST" button for 2 sec-
onds or more.
• Resetting will reset the timer display and travel distance display and put 
measurement on standby.
• Auto start attempt will put measure- ment on standby as such. Likewise, 
manual start attempt will put mea-
surement on standby as such.
Correcting tripmeter A (TRIP A)
1. Change the travel distance dis- play by pushing the "SLCT1" but-
ton (plus) or "SLCT2" button 
(minus). A long push on the but-
ton will fast-forward the change.
Change can be made any time while 
timer measurement is or is not being 
made.
