The following table indicates the most suitable level of ABS intervention for the various riding modes, as
well as the default settings in the “Riding Modes” that can be selected by the user:
ABS
LEVEL
RIDING MODE OPERATION CHARACTERISTIC DEFAULT
OFF The ABS is disabled
1 OFF-ROAD FOR EX‐
PERTS
This level is designed exclusively for
off-road use, for expert riders and is not
recommended for road use. ABS in this
level only controls the front wheel, and
thus allows rear wheel lockup, thus
helping braking efficiency on dirt
roads. The system in this level does
NOT control lift-up nor it activates the
cornering function.
It is the default level for the
“RALLY” riding mode
2 OFF-ROAD FOR BE‐
GINNERS
This level is designed for off-road use,
for beginners and is not recommended
for road use. The ABS in this level works
on both wheels and has active corner‐
ing (only on the rear and for high lean‐
ing angles) and lift-up control func‐
tions.
It is the default level for the
“ENDURO” riding mode
