welcome screen display
a self diagnosis devicePush the “SELECT” button to switch
the display between the odometer
mode “ODO”, tripmeters mode “TRIP
1” and “TRIP 2”, instantaneous fuel
consumption mode “km/L” or “L/100
km”, average fuel consumption mode
“AVE_ _._ km/L” or “AVE_ _._ L/100
km” and average speed mode “AVE_
_._ km/h” in the following order:
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → km/L or
L/100 km → AVE_ _._ km/L or AVE_ _._
L/100 km → AVE_ _._ km/h → ODO
For the UK:
Push the “SELECT” button to switch
the display between the odometer
mode “ODO”, tripmeters mode “TRIP
1” and “TRIP 2”, instantaneous fuel
consumption mode “km/L” or “L/100
km” or “MPG, average fuel consump-
tion mode “AVE_ _._ km/L”, “AVE_ _._
L/100 km” or “AVE_ _ _._ MPG” and
average speed mode “AVE_ _._ km/h”
or “AVE_ _._ MPH” in the following or-
der:
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → km/L or
L/100 km or MPG → AVE_ _._ km/L or
AVE_ _._ L/100 km or AVE_ _ _._
MPG→ AVE_ _._ km/h or AVE_ _._
MPH → ODO
Push the “RESET” button to switch
display backward.
If the last segment of the fuel meter
starts flashing, the display automati-
cally changes to the fuel reserve trip-
meter mode “TRIP F” and starts
counting the distance traveled from
that point. In that case, push the “SE-
LECT” button to switch the display be-

instantaneous fuel consumption, aver-
age fuel consumption, and average
speed modes in the following order:
TRIP F → km/L or L/100 km → AVE_
_._ km/L or AVE_ _._ L/100 km → AVE_
_._ km/h → ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2

For the UK:
TRIP F → km/L, L/100 km or MPG →
AVE_ _._ km/L, AVE_ _._ L/100 km or
AVE_ _ _._ MPG→ AVE_ _._ km/h or
AVE_ _._ MPH → ODO → TRIP 1 →
TRIP 2 → TRIP F
To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “SELECT” button and then
push and hold the “RESET” button.
If you do not reset the fuel reserve trip-
meter manually, it resets itself auto-
matically and the display returns to the
prior mode after refueling and traveling
5 km (3 mi).
Odometer mode
The odometer shows the total distance
traveled by the vehicle. It will lock at
999999 and cannot be reset.Tripmeters mode
The tripmeters shows the total dis-
tance traveled since they were last re-
set.
To reset a tripmeter, push and hold the
“RESET” button.
TIP
The tripmeters will reset and con-
tinue counting after 9999.9 is
reached. To reset the tripmeters,
while it is being displayed, push
and hold the “RESET” button.
Instantaneous fuel consumption
mode
Shows the current fuel consumption
when the vehicle is traveling at least 10
km/h (6 mi/h).

3The instantaneous fuel consumption
can be set to either “km/L”, “L/100 km”
or “MPG” (for the UK).
To switch the instantaneous fuel con-
sumption display between “km/L”,
“L/100 km” and “MPG” (for the UK),
push and hold the “SELECT” button.
“km/L”: The distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 L of fuel under the
current riding conditions is shown.
“L/100 km”: The amount of fuel
necessary to travel 100 km under
the current riding conditions is
shown.
“MPG” (for the UK): The distance
that can be traveled on
1.0 Imp.gal of fuel under the cur-
rent riding conditions is shown.
TIP
If traveling at speeds under 10
km/h (6 mi/h), “_ _._” is displayed.
The instantaneous fuel consump-
tion function should be used for
general reference only. Do not use
this figure to estimate the distance
that can be traveled on the current
tank of fuel.
Average fuel consumption mode
Show the average fuel consumption
since it was last reset.The average fuel consumption can be
set to either “AVE_ _._ km/L”, “AVE_
_._ L/100 km” or “AVE_ _ _._ MPG” (for
the UK).
To switch the average fuel consump-
tion display between “AVE_ _._ km/L”,
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km” or “AVE_ _ _._
MPG” (for the UK), push and hold the
“SELECT” button.
“AVE_ _._ km/L”: The average dis-
tance that can be traveled on 1.0 L
of fuel is shown.
“AVE_ _._ L/100 km”: The average
amount of fuel necessary to travel
100 km is shown.
“AVE_ _ _._ MPG” (for the UK):
The average distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 Imp.gal of fuel is
shown.
To reset the average fuel consumption
display, push and hold the “RESET”
button.
TIP
After resetting the average fuel
consumption, “_ _._” will be
shown until the vehicle has trav-
eled 1 km (0.6 mi).
The average fuel consumption
function should be used for gener-
al reference only. Do not use this
figure to estimate the distance that
can be traveled on the current
tank of fuel.

5 The neutral indicator light should
come on and then the clutch lever
can be released.
WARNING
EWA17380
Improper braking can cause
loss of control or traction. Al-
ways use both brakes and apply
them smoothly.
Make sure that the motorcycle
and the engine have sufficiently
slowed before shifting to a low-
er gear. Engaging a lower gear
when the vehicle or engine
speed is too high could make
the rear wheel lose traction or
the engine to over-rev. This
could cause loss of control, an
accident and injury. It could also
cause engine or drive train dam-
age.
EAU16811
Tips for reducing fuel con-
sumption
Fuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the follow-
ing tips to reduce fuel consumption:
Shift up swiftly, and avoid high en-
gine speeds during acceleration.
Do not rev the engine while shift-
ing down, and avoid high engine
speeds with no load on the en-
gine.
Turn the engine off instead of let-
ting it idle for an extended length
of time (e.g., in traffic jams, at traf-
fic lights or at railroad crossings).
