more information on
“TCS-MODE”.

When “TCS-MODE” has been set
to “OFF”, the traction control sys-
tem, SCS and LIF systems are allturned off together.WARNING
EWA15433
The traction control system is not a
substitute for riding appropriately
for the conditions. Traction control
cannot prevent loss of traction due
to excessive speed when entering
turns, when accelerating hard at a
sharp lean angle, or while braking,
and cannot prevent front wheel slip-
ping. As with any vehicle, approach
surfaces that may be slippery with
caution and avoid especially slip-pery surfaces.
When the vehicle power is on, the trac-
tion control system automatically turns
on. The traction control system can be
turned on or off manually only when the
key is in the “ON” position and the mo-
torcycle is stopped.
TIPSet “TCS-MODE” to “OFF” to help free
the rear wheel if the motorcycle gets
stuck in mud, sand, or other soft surfac-es.NOTICE
ECA16801
Use only the specified tires. (See
page 7-16.) Using different sized
tires will prevent the traction control
system from controlling tire rotationaccurately.
SCS
The slide control system regulates en-
gine power output when a sideward
slide is detected in the rear wheel. It ad-
justs power output based on data from
the IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit).
This system supports the traction con-
trol system to contribute to a smoother
ride.
LIF
The lift control system reduces the rate
at which the front wheel rises during ex-
treme acceleration, such as during starts or out-of-corner exits. When
front-wheel lift is detected, engine pow-
er is regulated to slow front-wheel lift
while still providing good acceleration.

Quick shifterThe quick shifter allows for clutch le-
ver-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.
The quick shifter does not operate
when the clutch lever is pulled, there-
fore normal shifting can be done even
when the quick shifter is set to on.
Check the quick shifter indicator for cur-
rent 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) Downshifting conditions

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 ful-
ly-closed
TIP
QS and QS can be individu-
ally set.

Shifting into or out of neutral mustbe done using the clutch lever.
EAU91350
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 de-
signed to engage and maximize brak-
ing when the vehicle is upright.
BC2 uses additional data from the IMU
to regulate applied brake power when
cornering to suppress lateral wheel slip.

Immobilizer systemThis vehicle is equipped with an immo-
bilizer system to help prevent theft by
re-registering codes in the standard
keys. This system consists of the fol-
lowing:
a code re-registering key

two standard keys

a transponder (in each key)

an immobilizer unit (on the vehicle)

an ECU (on the vehicle)

a system indicator light (page 4-7)
About the keys
The code re-registering key is used to
register codes in each standard key. Store the code re-registering key in a
safe place. Use a standard key for daily
operation.
When key replacement or re-register-
ing is necessary, bring the vehicle and
the code re-registering key along with
any remaining standard keys to a
Yamaha dealer to have them re-regis-
tered.
TIP
Keep the standard keys as well as
keys of other immobilizer systems
away from the code re-registering
key.

Keep other immobilizer system
keys away from the main switch as
they may cause signal interfer-ence.
NOTICE
ECA11823
DO NOT LOSE THE CODE RE-REG-
ISTERING KEY! CONTACT YOUR
DEALER IMMEDIATELY IF IT IS
LOST! If the code re-registering key
is lost, the existing standard keys
can still be used to start the vehicle.
However, registering a new stan-
dard key is impossible. If all keyshave been lost or damaged, the en-
tire immobilizer system must be re-
placed. Therefore, handle the keys
carefully.

Do not submerse in water.

Do not expose to high tempera-
tures.

Do not place near magnets.

Do not place near items that
transmit electrical signals.

Do not handle roughly.

Do not grind or alter.

Do not disassemble.

Do not put two keys of any im-
mobilizer system on the samekey ring.

minimize the risk of losing the code
re-registering key (red bow), keep it in a
safe place and only use it for codere-registering.

This indicator light comes on when the
transmission is in the neutral position.
EAU88310

Fuel level warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when the
fuel level drops below approximately
2.7 L (0.71 US gal, 0.59 Imp.gal). When
this occurs, refuel as soon as possible.
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning the vehicle
on. The warning light should come on
for a few seconds, and then go off.TIPIf the warning light does not come on at all, remains on after refueling, or if the
warning light flashes repeatedly, have
a Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
EAU91650
Cruise control indicator lights “ ”/
“”
These indicator lights come on when
the cruise control system is activated.
(See page 3-1.)TIPWhen the vehicle is turned on, these
lights should come on for a few sec-
onds and then go off. Otherwise, havea Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
EAU88331
Malfunction indicator light (MIL)
“”
This light comes on or flashes if a prob-
lem is detected in the engine or other
vehicle control system
. If this occurs,
have a Yamaha dealer check the
on-board diagnostic system. The elec-
trical circuit of the warning light can be
checked by turning the vehicle power
on. The light should come on for a few
seconds, and then go off. If the light does not come on initially when the ve-
hicle power is turned on, or if the light
remains on, have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle.
NOTICE
ECA26820
If the MIL starts flashing, reduce en-
gine speed to prevent exhaust sys-tem damage.TIPThe engine is sensitively monitored by
the on-board diagnostic system to de-
tect deterioration or malfunction of the
emission control system. Therefore the
MIL may come on or flash due to vehi-
cle modifications, lack of maintenance,
or excessive/improper use of the mo-
torcycle. To prevent this, observe these
precautions.
Do not attempt to modify the soft-
ware of the engine control unit.

Do not add any electrical accesso-
ries that interfere with engine con-
trol.

Do not use aftermarket accesso-
ries or parts such as suspension,
spark plugs, injectors, exhaust
system, etc.

ABS warning light “ ”
In normal operation, the ABS warning
light comes on when the vehicle is
turned on, and goes off after traveling
at a speed of 5 km/h (3 mi/h) or higher.TIPIf the warning light does not work as de-
scribed above, or if the warning light comes on while riding, the ABS may not
work correctly. Have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle as soon as possible.
WARNING
EWA21120
If the ABS warning light does not
turn off after reaching 5 km/h (3
mi/h), or if the warning light comes
on while riding: 
Use extra caution to avoid pos-
sible wheel lock during emer-
gency braking.

Have a Yamaha dealer check thevehicle as soon as possible.
EAU88350
Immobilizer system indicator light
“”
When the main switch is turned off and
30 seconds have passed, the indicator
light will flash steadil
y to indicate the im-
mobilizer system is enabled. After 24
hours have passed, the indicator light
will stop flashing, however the immobi-
lizer system is still enabled.TIPWhen the vehicle is turned on, this light should come on for a few seconds and
then go off. If the light does not come
on, or if the light remains on, have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
Transponder interference
If the immobilizer system indicator light
flashes in the pattern, slowly 5 times
then quickly 2 times, this could be
caused by transponder interference. If
this occurs, try the following.
1. Make sure there are no other im- mobilizer keys close to the main
switch.
2. Use the code re-registering key to start the engine.
3. If the engine starts, turn it off, and try starting the engine with the
standard keys.
4. If one or both of the standard keys do not start the engine, take the
vehicle and all 3 keys to a Yamaha
dealer to have the standard keys
re-registered.
