track/circuit (see below, tips for use on the track and
on the road). Level depends on type of track: if the
track/path features bends all taken at similar speeds,
it will be easier to find a level suitable for all bends;
while a track/path with bends all requiring different
speeds will require a DTC level setting that is the best
compromise for all bends.
The relation of the DTC intervention level to riding
mode: The DTC will tend to kick in more with a
"smooth" riding mode, where the bike is leaned over
further, rather than with a "rough" style, where the
bike is straightened up as quickly as possible when
exiting a turn.
Tips for use on the track
We recommend that level 6 be used for a couple of
full laps (to allow the tires to warm up) in order to get
used to the system. Then try levels 5, 4, etc., in
succession until you identify the DTC sensitivity level
that suits you best (always try each level for at least
two laps to allow the tires to warm up).
Once you have found a satisfactory setting for all the
corners except one or two slow ones, where the
system tends to kick in and control too much, you can
try to modify your riding style slightly to a "rougher"
approach to cornering i.e. straighten up more rapidly
on exiting the corner, instead of immediately trying a
different level setting.
Tips for use on dry road
Activate the DTC, select level 6 and ride the
motorcycle in your usual style; if the level of DTC
sensitivity seems excessive, try reducing the setting
to level 5, 4, etc., until you find the level that suits you
best.
If changes occur in the grip conditions and/or circuit
characteristics and/or your riding style, and the level
setting is no longer suitable, switch to the next level
up or down and proceed to determine the best
setting (e.g. if with level 5 the DTC intervention
seems excessive, switch to level 4; alternatively, if on
level 5 you cannot perceive any DTC intervention,
switch to level 6).
Tips for use on wet road
Level 7 is recommended when road is slightly wet or
damp and level 8 on wet road. It is also recommended
to select ENGINE LOW in these conditions.
