1. To speed up
2. To slow down
This vehicle is equipped with an Elec-
tronic Throttle Control (ETC). The
throttle plates in the throttle body are
controlled electronically and can be
opened or closed irrespective of the
throttle
twist grip position when
necessary.
It may happen that when you acceler-
ate, the Vehicle Stability System
(VSS) prevents engine acceleration in
order to maintain vehicle stability.
Then, when the vehicle is stabilized,
the engine RPM would increase as re-
quested if the throttle was maintained.
This would be felt as a "delayed"
acceleration.
The VSS can never accelerate the ve-
hicle. All it can do is to open the throt-
tle slightly to decrease the amount of
engine braking on slippery surfaces.
This prevents the rear tire from slip-
ping because of engine braking.
