pecially slippery surfaces.
There are three traction control system
modes:  “TCS 1”: Default mode
 “TCS 2”: Sporty mode
This mode decreases traction
control system assist, allowing the
rear wheel to spin more freely than
“TCS 1”.
 “TCS OFF”: The traction control
system is turned off. The system
may also be automatically dis-
abled in some riding conditions
(see “Resetting” on page 3-28).
When the key is turned to “ON”, the
traction control system is enabled and
“TCS 1” is displayed in the multi-func-
tion meter.
The traction control system mode can
be changed only when the key is in the
“ON” position and the vehicle is not
moving.
TIPUse the mode “TCS OFF” to help free
the rear wheel if the motorcycle gets
stuck in mud, sand, or other soft sur-
faces.NOTICE

Turn the key to “OFF”. Wait at least one
second, then turn the key back to
