Rear brake leverThe rear brake lever is located on the
left side of the handlebar. To apply the
rear brake, pull this lever toward the
handlebar grip.
EAU65583
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)This model’s ABS features a dual elec-
tronic control system, which acts on
the front and rear brakes independent-
ly.
Operate the brakes with ABS as you
would conventional brakes. If the ABS
is activated, a pulsating sensation may
be felt at the brake levers. In this situa-
tion, continue to apply the brakes and
let the ABS work; do not “pump” the
brakes as this will reduce braking ef-
fectiveness.
WARNING
EWA16051
Always keep a sufficient distance
from the vehicle ahea d to match the
ri din g spee d 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 b e longer with
the ABS than without.The ABS is monitored by an ECU,
which will revert the system to conven-
tional braking if a malfunction occurs.
TIP The ABS performs a self-diagnos-
tic test each time the vehicle is
turned on and travels at a speed of
10 km/h (6 mi/h) or higher. During
this test, a clicking noise can be
heard and if either brake lever is
even slightly applied, a vibration
can be felt at the lever, but this
does not indicate a malfunction.
 This ABS has a test mode which
allows the owner to experience
the pulsation at the brake levers
when the ABS is operating. How-
ever, special tools are required, so
please consult your Yamaha deal-
er.NOTICE
ECA20100
Be careful not to d amage the wheel
sensor or wheel sensor rotor; other-
wise, improper performance of the
ABS will result.

EAU78614
Traction control systemThe traction control system helps
maintain traction when accelerating on
slippery surfaces, such as unpaved or
wet roads. If sensors detect that the
rear wheel is starting to slip (uncon-
trolled spinning), the traction control
system assists by regulating engine
power until traction is restored.
When traction control has engaged,
the “ ” indicator light will flash. You
may notice changes in engine re-
sponse or exhaust sound.
WARNING
EWA18860
The traction control system is not a
su bstitute for ri din g appropriately
for the con ditions. Traction control
cannot prevent loss of traction d ue
to excessive spee d when enterin g
turns, when acceleratin g har d at a
sharp lean an gle, or while brakin g,
an d cannot prevent front wheel slip-
pin g. As with any vehicle, approach
surfaces that may be slippery with
caution an d avoi d especially slip-
pery surfaces.
Settin g the traction control system
When the vehicle is turned on, traction
control is automatically turned on.
To turn the traction control system off,
use the “INFO” switch to change the
information display to the traction con-
trol system display. Then hold the “IN-
FO” switch for three seconds. The
display will show “TCSOFF”, and the
“TCS” indicator light will come on.

TIPTurn the traction control system off to
help free the rear wheel if the vehicle
gets stuck in mud, sand, or other soft
surfaces.NOTICE
ECA16801
Use only the specified tires. (See
pa ge 7-20.) Usin g different size d
tires will prevent the traction control
system from controllin g tire rotation
accurately.
Resettin g the traction control sys-
tem
The traction control system will auto-
matically disable under certain condi-
tions; such as when a sensor fault is
detected, or when only one wheel is al-
lowed to rotate for more than a few
seconds. Should this happen, the “ ”
indicator light will come on, and possi-
bly the “ ” warning light, too.TIPWhen the vehicle is on the centerstand,
do not rev the engine for an extended
period of time. Otherwise, the traction
control system will automatically dis-
able and need to be reset.
If the traction control system automat-
ically disables, try resetting it as fol-
lows. 1. Stop the vehicle and turn it off completely.
2. Wait a few seconds and then turn the vehicle power on.
3. The “ ” indicator light should turn off and the system be en-
abled.TIPIf the “ ” indicator light remains on af-
ter resetting, the vehicle may still be
ridden; however, have a Yamaha deal-
er check the vehicle as soon as possi-
ble.4. Have a Yamaha dealer check thevehicle and turn off the “ ”
warning light.
