NOTICE
ECA22950
Even when using LCS, the clutch le-
ver must be released gradually toavoid clutch damage.TIPLCS is intended for track use only.
QSS
The quick shift system allows for
full-throttle, clutch lever-less, electroni-
cally-assisted upshifts. When the
switch positioned on the shift lever rod
detects motion in the shift lever, engine
power output is adjusted and drive
torque is momentarily cancelled out to
allow for the gear change to occur.TIP
QSS operates when traveling at
least 20 km/h with an engine
speed of 2000 r/min or higher and
only when accelerating.

QSS does not operate when theclutch lever is pulled. LIF
The lift control system reduces the rate
at which the front wheel will continue to
rise during extreme acceleration, such
as during starts or out-of-corner exits.
When front-wheel lift is detected, en-
gine power is regulated to slow
front-wheel lift while still providing good
acceleration.
ERS (YZF-R1M)
The Electronic Racing Suspension by
Öhlins features electrically-controlled
suspension damping. The system is
controlled by the SCU which makes in-
dependent adjustments of both the
front and rear suspension’s compres-
sion stroke and rebound stroke damp-
ing forces. There are two modes,
automatic and manual. Automatic
mode is an active suspension control
system which actively adjusts suspen-
sion damping forces based on running
conditions. Manual mode is a finely-tu-
neable traditional suspension set-up.

Main switch/steering lockThe main switch/steering lock controls
the ignition and lighting systems, and is
used to lock the steering. The various
positions are described below.TIPBe sure to use the standard key (black
bow) for regular use of the vehicle. To
minimize the risk of losing the code
re-registering key (red bow), keep it in a
safe place and only use it for codere-registering.
EAU10551
ON
All electrical circuits are supplied with
power, the meter lighting, taillight, li- cense plate light and auxiliary lights
come on, and the engine can be start-
ed. The key cannot be removed.
TIPThe headlights come on automatically
when the engine is started and stay on
until the key is turned to “OFF”, even ifthe engine stalls.

This indicator light comes on when the
high beam of the headlight is switched
on.
EAU66890
Fuel level warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on when the
fuel level drops below approximately
3.0 L (0.79 US gal, 0.66 Imp.gal). When
this occurs, refuel as soon as possible.
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning the key to
“ON”. The warning light should come
on for a few seconds and then go off.TIPIf the warning light does not come on at
all, remains on after refueling, or if the
warning light flashes repeatedly, havea Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
EAU66501
ABS warning light “ ”
In normal operation, the ABS warning
light comes on when the key is turned
to “ON”, and goes off after traveling at a
speed of 10 km/h (6 mi/h) or higher.
If the warning light does not work as de-
scribed above, or if the warning light
comes on while riding, the ABS and
UBS may not work correctly. Have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle as
soon as possible. (See “Brake system”
on page 4-31 for an explanation of ABS
and UBS.)
WARNING
EWA16041
If the ABS warning light does not go
off after traveling at a speed of 10
km/h (6 mi/h) or higher, or if the
warning light comes on or flashes
while riding, the brake system re-
verts to conventional braking. If ei-
ther of the above occurs, or if the
warning light does not come on at
all, use extra caution to avoid possi-
ble wheel lock during emergency
braking. Have a Yamaha dealer
check the brake system and electri-cal circuits as soon as possible.

Speedometer
The speedometer shows the vehicle’s
traveling speed. For certain markets,
the display can be switched between ki-
lometers and miles. (See “Unit” on
page 4-22.)Tachometer
The tachometer shows the engine
speed, as measured by the rotational
velocity of the crankshaft, in revolutions
per minute (r/min). When the vehicle is
first powered on, the tachometer will
sweep across the r/min range and then
return to zero.
TIP
In TRACK MODE, the tachometer
starts at 8000 r/min.

In STREET MODE, the tachome-
ter can be color-adjusted and has
a revolution peak hold indicatorwhich can be turned on or off.
