Selecting a Riding Mode – when
Riding the Motorcycle
Warning
The selection of riding modes while the
motorcycle is in motion requires the
rider to allow the motorcycle to coast
(motorcycle moving, engine running,
throttle closed, clutch lever pulled
in and no brakes applied) for a brief
period of time.
Riding mode selection while the
motorcycle is in motion should only be
attempted:
- At low speed
- In traffic free areas
-
On straight and level roads or
surfaces
- In good road and weather conditions
-
Where it is safe to allow the
motorcycle to briefly coast.
Riding mode selection while the
motorcycle is in motion MUST NOT be
attempted:
- At high speeds
- While riding in traffic
- During cornering or on winding roads
or surfaces
- On steeply inclined roads or surfaces
- In poor road/weather conditions
-
Where it is unsafe to allow the
motorcycle to coast.
Failure to observe this important
warning will lead to loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
Warning
After selecting a riding mode, operate
the motorcycle in an area free from
traffic to gain familiarity with the new
settings.
Do not loan your motorcycle to anyone
as they may change the riding mode
setting from the one you are familiar
with, causing loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
Note
Street Scrambler Only
OFF ROAD mode is not available to select
when riding the motorcycle. It can only
be selected when the motorcycle is
stationary.
OFF ROAD mode can be switched off by
a long press on the MODE button which
then selects ROAD mode.
Press and release the MODE button on
either the left or right hand handlebar
switch housing (model specific) until the
required riding mode is flashing in the
display.
Within 30
seconds of pressing the
MODE button the rider must carry out
the following simultaneously:
• Close the throttle.
• Pull the clutch in.
• Make sure that the brakes are not
engaged (allow the motorcycle to
coast).
Note
The last riding mode selected before the
ignition is switched OFF will be the same
riding mode active when the ignition is
switched ON again.
