air pressure. In most instances,
therefore, these gauge read-
ings will not tally with the pres-
sures shown by the multifunction
display.
Pressure adaptation
Compare the RDC value on the
multifunction display with the
value in the table on the inside
cover of the Rider's Manual.
Then use the air line at a service
station to compensate for the
difference between the RDC
reading and the value in the
table.
Example
According to the Rider's
Manual, the tyre pressure
should be:
2.5 bar
Example
The multifunction display
shows the following reading:
2.3 bar
So pressure is low by:
0.2 bar
The gauge on the air line
shows:
2.4 bar
You must now increase tyre
pressure until the value is:
2.6 bar

Possible settings
Dynamic ESA enables you
to adjust your motorcycle's
suspension to suit the load and
the road conditions.
Via ride height sensors, Dynamic
ESA detects the movements in
the chassis and suspension and
responds to the same by ad-
justing the damper valves. The
chassis and suspension will thus
be adapted to the characteristics
of the terrain.
You can set the damping to a
harder (HARD) or softer (SOFT)
setting than the basic setting
(NORMAL).
with Pro riding modes
OE
The suspension setting depends
on the riding mode selected.
The damping defined by the rid-
ing mode can be changed by the
rider.
