slide: these levels are recommended on the track only
and exclusively for expert riders: in particular, level 1 is
designed to work at best only with tyres having SC2
compound.
The choice of the correct level mainly depends on the
following parameters:
-
The tyre/asphalt grip (type of tyre, amount of tyre
wear, the road/track surface, weather conditions,
etc.).
-
The characteristics of the path/circuit (bends all
taken at similar speeds or at very different
speeds).
-
The riding mode (whether the rider has a
"smooth" or a "rough" style).
Level depends on grip conditions: the choice of level
setting depends greatly on the grip conditions of the
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.
Level depends on riding style: The DTC will tend to
kick in more with a "smooth" riding style, where the
motorcycle is leaned over further, rather than with a
"rough" style, where the motorcycle is straightened
up as quickly as possible when exiting a turn.
Tips for use on the track
We recommend that level 6 is used for a couple of full
laps (to allow the tyres 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 tyres 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 more
"rough" 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 the road
Activate the DTC, select level 6 and ride the
motorcycle in your usual style; if the level of DTC
sensitivity seems excessive, try levels 5, 4, etc., until
you find the one that suits you best.
