10 RIDING INSTRUCTIONS

H01997-11
–
If the quick is enabled in the combination instrument, you can shift down in
the speed range shown without pulling the clutch lever.
Info
The maximum engine speed before shifting down in revolutions per minute
is shown in the figure.
Depress the shift lever quickly back to the stop without changing the throttle
twist grip position.
10.8 MSR (optional)
402423-01
The MSR is an optional auxiliary function of the engine control.
If the engine braking effect is too great, the MSR prevents the rear wheel from locking or
sliding away on a sloping position.
To avoid slip of the rear wheel, the
MSR only opens the throttle valve as far as absolutely
necessary.
The
MSR
is applied on surfaces, where the friction is to low to open the anti
‑
hopping
clutch.
To further increase ride safety, the
MSR is slope dependent.
Info
If ABS is disabled, MTC is disabled or ABS Mode SMOTO is enabled, the MSR is not
active.
