YRC items MODE/PWR/TCS/SCS
The current MODE (YRC mode) and its
related PWR, TCS and SCS settings
are shown here. The individual settings for YRC items
PWR, TCS, SCS, LCS, QSS and LIF
can be organized into four groups and
set independently for each group.
These groups of settings are the YRC
modes MODE-A, MODE-B, MODE-C,
and MODE-D. Use the mode switch to
change YRC modes or make YRC item
setting changes from the main screen.
TIPThe YRC modes come preset from the
factory for different riding conditions.
When using the factory presets, the
suggested YRC modes are as follows.
MODE-A is suitable for track rid-
ing.

MODE-B is a softer track-riding
setting.

MODE-C is suitable for street rid-
ing.

MODE-D is suitable for touring orrainy weather.
To change YRC modes or make setting
changes1. Push the mode switch center but- ton to scroll left to right and high-
light the item you want to adjust. 2. Use the mode switch up button or
down button to change the select-
ed item value (vertical scrolling is
not possible).
TIP
Under certain conditions, such as
when the vehicle is in motion, the
throttle grip is turned, excessive
wheel slip is detected, etc., certain
YRC items cannot be adjusted.

When a YRC item is highlighted
but cannot be adjusted, the YRCitem box will return to black.

amount of system intervention, and set-
ting level 3 provides the greatest
amount of system intervention.
LCS
LCS can be set to 1, 2, or OFF. Setting
level 2 more strongly controls power
engine output, while setting level 1 ap-
plies less system intervention. OFF dis-
ables the LCS function from the
selected YRC mode (the LCS icon will
not appear and the launch control func-
tion cannot be activated).
When LCS has been set to level 1 or 2
for the selected YRC mode, the LCS in-
dicator on the main screen will appear
in a grey color to indicate that LCS is available. When the launch control sys-
tem has been activated (made ready
for use via the mode switch), the LCS
indicator will turn white.
TIPLCS works in conjunction with the LIF
system. LCS cannot be used if LIF isturned off.
QSS
The quick shift system is divided into
QS (upshift) and QS (downshift)
sections. QS and QS are not
linked and can be independently turned
on or off.
QS can be set to 1, 2, or OFF. Set-
ting level 1 is designed for maximum
acceleration, while setting level 2 is de-
signed to give smooth shifts at halfway
or less throttle openings. OFF turns the
respective upshift or downshift function
off, and the clutch lever must then be
used when shifting in that direction.TIP
Set QS to 1 for track or sporty
riding.

Set QS to 2 for touring or
around town-riding.
LIF
LIF can be set to 1, 2, 3, or OFF. Setting
level 3 most strongly reduces wheel lift,
and setting level 1 provides the least
amount of system intervention. OFF
turns LIF off and LCS will be disabled
for the selected YRC mode.
To customize a YRC mode or adjust a
YRC item1. From the MENU screen, select “YRC Setting”.

mark to fine tune the ERS mode
settings.
ERS (YZF-R1M)
The ERS consists of three semi-active
automatic modes (T-1, T-2, R-1) and
three manual setting modes (M-1, M-2,
M-3). When an automatic mode is se-
lected, the SCU will adjust the com-
pression and rebound damping forces
based on running conditions. For all modes and models, spring preload is
physically adjusted by hand. (See pag-
es 4-41 and 4-44.)
For track modes T-1 and T-2, the fol-
lowing settings can be adjusted:
BRAKE SUPPORT: reduces nosedive
(front-end pitch from braking)
CORNER SUPPORT: increases
damping to absorb c
hassis fluctuations
for smooth cornering. Reduce this set-
ting for increased rear wheel grip.
ACCEL SUPPORT: reduces rear-end
squat (rear-end pitch due to accelera-
tion)
FRONT FIRM: hardens (H) or softens
(S) overall damping of the front suspen-
sion
REAR FIRM: hardens (H) or softens
(S) overall damping of the rear suspen-
sion For the road mode R-1, the following
settings can be adjusted:
BRAKE SUPPORT: reduces nosedive
(front-end pitch from braking)
FRONT FIRM: hardens (H) or softens
(S) overall damping of the front suspen-
sion
REAR FIRM: hardens (H) or softens

sion

“Lap Time”
This module allows you to view and de-
lete the lap time record. The fastest lap
and the average lap time stored in the
lap time record are displayed at the top
of the screen. Use the wheel switch to
scroll and see all lap times. The top
three fastest laps will be highlighted in
silver. Up to 40 laps can be stored in
memory. If more than 40 laps are re-
corded, the oldest laps (starting from
lap 1) will be overwritten.
This module has two options.
“Display” allows you to view the lap
time record. “Reset” allows you to delete the lap
time record data.
Use the wheel switch to select “Display”
and view the lap record.
To reset the lap time record data
1. When “Lap Time” is selected, both
“Display” and “Reset” are dis-
played.
2. Select “Reset”.
3. Select YES to delete all lap time data. (Select NO to exit and return
to the previous screen without re-
setting the lap record.)
