TIP●
The traction control may engage
when the vehicle travels over a
bump.
●
The rider may notice slight chang-
es in engine and exhaust sounds
when the traction control system is
engaged.
There are six traction control system
modes and an off mode.●
“TCS” mode 1 provides for the
least traction control system as-
sist.
●
“TCS” modes 2 through 6 provide
for more traction control system
assist. Mode 6 provides the most
traction control system assist.
●
“TCS OFF” mode turns the traction
control system off. The system
may also be automatically dis-
abled in some riding conditions
(see “Resetting” on page 3-23).
When the key is turned to “ON”, the
traction control system is enabled and
the last mode selected displays in the
multi-function meter.
All traction control system modes can
be selected when the key is in the “ON”
position. Modes 1 through 6 can also
be selected when the vehicle is moving,

pletely closed. The traction control sys-
tem cannot be turned on or off while the

abled in the following conditions:

on after resetting, the motorcycle may
still be ridden; however, have a
