Motorcycle traction control (Cornering MTC)
V02213-01
The motorcycle traction control (MTC) lowers the engine torque
in case of loss of traction in the rear wheel. Depending on the
riding mode (
p. 131), different amounts of slip are allowed
when traction control is activated.
Info
When motorcycle traction control is switched off, the rear
wheel may spin during strong acceleration and on sur-
faces with low grip, resulting in a risk of falling.
After the ignition is switched on, motorcycle traction con-
trol is enabled again.
In the combination instrument, the motorcycle traction control
can be switched on or off via the
MTC
submenu.
