Motorcycle traction control (MTC)
F01303-01
The motorcycle traction control (MTC) lowers the engine torque in
case of loss of traction in the rear wheel. Depending on the motor-
cycle traction control setting, a slight slip on the rear wheel may
be desirable. Example: offroad.
Info
When motorcycle traction control is switched off, the rear
wheel may spin during strong acceleration and on surfaces
with low grip, resulting in a risk of crashing.
After the ignition is switched back on, motorcycle traction
control is enabled again.
The motorcycle traction control is controlled via the
Motorcycle
menu on the combination instrument. The motorcycle
traction control can be switched off in the
MTC
menu.
Info
When the motorcycle traction control is active, the TC indi-
cator lamp
flashes.
When motorcycle traction control is switched off, the TC
indicator lamp
lights up.
