Proceed in the normal
way when starting; open
the throttle only as far as
necessary to reach the rpm
limit.
After engaging the clutch,
open the throttle completely.
Shift light lights up or flashes.
Launch Control controls the
optimum torque on the rear
wheel and keeps the engine
speed constant up to the
speed specified below.
Keep the throttle twistgrip
fully open.
Speed when deactivat-
ing engine speed limita-
tion for Launch Control
approx. 70 km/h
As soon as rpm limitation
ceases, engine rpm increases
because the throttle twistgrip
is in the full-throttle position.
Throttle-twistgrip reaction is
normal again.
Depending on the racing cir-
cuit, upshift and lean into the
bends.
If in third gear or leaning fur-
ther than 30°, the shift light
disappears.
The racing start with Launch
Control is concluded.
PIT LANE LIMITER

Limiting the speed with the
Pit Lane Limiter
The Pit Lane Limiter helps you
to comply with a speed limit,
e.g. in the pit lane. To do so, a
maximum rpm is specified for
the engine when riding in 1st
gear.
The speed resulting from
the maximum rotational
speed is dependent on the ra-
tio and tyre size.
Range of values
3500 to 8000 rpm in incre-
ments of 100
