The ASR system is a device to help riding that helps the rider during acceleration manoeuvres, espe-
cially on slippery surfaces or in conditions that can cause sudden slippage of the rear wheel. The ASR

grip conditions, contributing significantly to the maintenance of stability the vehicle.
WARNING
THE ASR SYSTEM IS BASED ON THE RECOGNITION OF SPEED DIFFERENCES BETWEEN
FRONT AND REAR WHEEL. IN ORDER FOR THE SYSTEM TO MAINTAIN MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY
IN ALL CONDITIONS, THE CALIBRATION PROCEDURE MUST BE PERFORMED EVERY TIME,
EVEN IN CASE OF REPLACEMENT OF JUST ONE TYRE.
