If the warning light comes on when
the engine is running, stop the en-
gine immediately and check oil level.
If the oil level is below the minimum
level, add sufficient oil of the recom-
mended type to raise it up to the cor-
rect level. If the oil pressure warning
light remains on even if the oil level
is correct, immediately turn the en-
gine off and have a Yamaha dealercheck the vehicle.

TIPShould vehicle motion be detected, the
screen will automatically exit MENUand change to the main screen.
“Display Mode”
There are two main screen display
modes, STREET MODE and TRACK

“YRC Setting”
This module allows you to customize the four YRC modes MODE-A,
MODE-B, MODE-C, MODE-D by ad-
justing the setting levels (or on/off sta-
tus as applicable) of YRC items PWR,
TCS, SCS, LCS, QSS, and LIF. For
YZF-R1M, you can select the ERS
mode to be associated with each YRC
mode, and also adjust the setting levels
of the ERS modes.
TIP
TCS has 9 setting levels and ERS
has 6 modes.

Whenever there are more selec-
tions (setting levels or modes)
available than can be shown on
the screen at one time, a scroll bar
will appear to notify you that addi-
tional selections are available byscrolling.
PWR
Select PWR-1 for the most aggressive
throttle response, PWR-2 and PWR-3
for smoother throttle grip/engine re-
sponse, and use PWR-4 for rainy days
or whenever less engine power is desir-
able.

TCS
This model uses a variable traction
control system. For each setting level,
the further the vehicle is leaned over,
the greater the amount of traction con-
trol (system intervention) is applied.
There are 9 setting levels available.
Setting level 1 applies the least amount
of overall system intervention, while
setting level 9 applies the greatest
amount of overall traction control.
TIP
TCS can only be turned on or off
via the main screen using the
mode switch.

When TCS has been turned off,
TCS, SCS, LCS, and LIF will be
set to OFF and cannot be adjust-
ed. When TCS is turned on again,
these related-traction control func-
tions will return to their previoussetting levels.
SCS
SCS can be set to OFF, 1, 2, and 3.
OFF turns the slide control system off,
setting level 1 provides the least 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

12 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
QSS can be set to 1, 2, or OFF. Setting
level 1 gives the fastest shifts, while
setting level 2 gives slightly smoother
shifts. OFF turns the system off entire-
ly, and the clutch lever must then be
used when making upshifts.TIPTurning the QSS on or off does not af-
fect any other systems nor is QSS af-
fected by the settings of any othersystem.
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”. 2. The “YRC Setting” screen is dis-
played, and the YRC mode box
“YRC” is highlighted. Short push
the wheel switch to enter the box
and then select the YRC mode; A,
B, C, D, that you want to adjust.

TIP
When a YRC item is selected, the
current setting level is indicated by
a blue-framed square and the fac-
tory preset level is indicated in a

can be adjusted to within a -5 to +5 off-
set of their factory preset settings.
There are three manual setting modes;
M-1, M-2, and M-3. When a manual
mode is selected, the SCU does not ac-
tively adjust the suspension compres-
sion and rebound damping forces.
Manual mode suspension settings are
adjustable to 32 levels.
TIP
A-1 and M-1 are preset for track
use with racing slick tires.

A-2 and M-2 are preset for track
use with street tires.

A-3 and M-3 are preset for street
use with street tires.

Spring preload is manually adjust-ed. (See pages 4-39 and 4-41.) To adjust the ERS mode settings

To decrease the damping force
and soften the suspension, in-
crease the setting level.

To increase the damping force and
harden the suspension, decrease
the setting level.

For A-1 and A-2, a number indicat-
ed in ( ) means how many levels
are changed from its factory preset
level.

When a suspension setting item in
A-1 or A-2 is offset, the same sus-
pension item will be similarly offset
in the other automatic mode (offset
values for the same item are auto-
matically linked).

M-1, M-2, M-3 are not linked andcan be independently set.
4. To adjust other ERS mode sus- pension settings, repeat from step
2. When finished, select the “ ”
mark located on the left to return to
the main “YRC Setting” menu. “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.
