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

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.

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.

When turning the main switch on,
avoid any movement or vibration of
the vehicle as it may interfere with
the initialization of the IMU. If this oc-
curs, the traction control system will
not operate and the “TCS-MODE”
display will read “OFF” until the IMUcan initialize.

Oil pressure and Coolant tempera-
ture warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on if the en-
gine oil pressure is low or if the coolant
temperature is high. If this occurs, stop
the engine immediately.
TIP
When the vehicle is first turned on,
this light should come on until the
engine is started.

If a malfunction is detected, this
light will come on and the oil pres-sure icon will flash.
NOTICE
ECA22441
If the oil pressure and coolant warn-
ing light does not go off after start-
ing the engine or if it comes on while
the engine is running, stop the vehi-
cle and engine immediately.
If the engine is overheating, the
coolant temperature warning
icon will come on. Let the en-
gine cool. Check the coolant
level (see page 7-37).

If the engine oil pressure is low,
the oil pressure warning icon
will come on. Check the oil level
(see page 7-12).

If the warning light remains on
after letting the engine cool and
confirming the proper oil level,
have a Yamaha dealer check the
vehicle. Do not continue to op-
erate the vehicle!

When an internal error occurs (e.g.,
communication with a system controller
has been cut off), the error mode warn-
ing will appear as follows.
“Err” and “ ” indicator light indicates
an ECU error.
“Err” only indicates an ABS ECU error.
TIPDepending on the nature of the error,
the display may not function properly
and the traction control system settings
may be impossible to change. Addition- ally, ABS may not function properly.
Use extra care when braking and have
a Yamaha dealer check the vehicle im-
mediately.

13 “Vehicle Setting”
The vehicle setting module allows you
to adjust setting for the BC and quick
shifter.
BC
The brake control system has two set-
tings, BC1 and BC2. Select BC1 when
only standard ABS is desired. Select BC2 to have the brake control system
further regulate brake pressure while
cornering to suppress lateral wheel slip.
TIPFor skilled riders and when riding at the
track, due to varying conditions, the
BC2 brake system may engage sooner
than expected relative to your desired
cornering speed or intended corneringline.
Quick shifterThe quick shifter indicators are divided
into QS and QS sections. QS
and QS are not linked and can be in-
dependently turned on or off.
The quick shifter can be set to ON or
OFF.OFF turns the respective upshift or
downshift function off, and the clutch le-
ver must then be used when shifting in
that direction.
TIPIf the quick shifter setting cannot be
changed: turn the engine off with the
gear position set to neutral, thenchange the setting.
“Shift Indicator”
This module allows a custom shift indi-
cator to be set. When the engine r/min
(rotations per minute) are in the speci-
fied range, the gear indicator will flash.

Brake pedalThe brake pedal is located on the right
side of the motorcycle. To apply the
rear brake, press down on the brake
pedal.
EAU91461
Brake control system (BC)The brake control system regulates hy-
draulic brake pressure for the front and
rear wheels independently when the
brakes are applied and wheel lock is
detected. This system has two settings
which can be changed in the settings
MENU. (See page 4-17.)
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.
Regarding ABS, operate the brakes as
you would conventional brakes. When
the brake control system engages, a
pulsating sensation may be felt at the
brake lever or brake pedal as the hy-
draulic unit rapidly applies and reduces
brake pressure. In this situation, contin-
ue to apply the brake lever and brake
pedal to allow the ABS to work—do not
“pump the brakes” as this will reduce
braking effectiveness.
WARNING
EWA16051
Always keep a sufficient distance
from the vehicle ahead to match the
riding speed even with ABS.
The ABS performs best with
long braking distances.

On certain surfaces, such as
rough or gravel roads, the brak-
ing distance may be longer withthe 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
substitute for the use of proper rid-
ing and braking techniques. The
brake control system cannot pre-
vent all loss of traction due to
over-braking from excessive speed,
or lateral wheel slip when braking onslippery surfaces.TIPThe ABS performs a self-diagnostic


Do not subject the shock ab-

SidestandThe sidestand is located on the left side
of the frame. Raise the sidestand or
lower it with your foot while holding the
vehicle upright.TIPThe built-in sidestand switch is part of
the ignition circuit cu
t-off system, which
cuts the ignition in certain situations.
(See the following section for an expla-
nation of the ignition circuit cut-off sys-tem.)
WARNING
EWA10242
The vehicle must not be ridden with
the sidestand down, or if the sides-
tand cannot be properly moved up
(or does not stay up), otherwise the
sidestand could contact the ground
and distract the operator, resulting
in a possible loss of control.
Yamaha’s ignition circuit cut-off
system has been designed to assist
the operator in fulfilling the respon-
sibility of raising the sidestand be-
fore starting off. Therefore, check
this system regularly and have a
