General Information
31
The tire pressure at which the warning
light
illuminates
is
temperature
compensated to 68°F (20°C) but the
numeric pressure display associated
with it is not (see page 137). Even if the
numeric display seems at or close to the
standard tire pressure when the
warning light is on, a low tire pressure is
indicated and a puncture is the most
likely cause.
Warning
Stop the motorcycle if the tire
pressure warning light illuminates. Do
not ride the motorcycle until the tires
have been checked and the tire
pressures are at their recommended
pressure when cold.
Frost Symbol
The frost symbol will illuminate
if the ambient temperature is below
39°F (4°C) or lower
The
ambient
air
temperature
is
displayed for four seconds upon
illumination of the frost symbol. The
display will then revert back to the
previous screen.
The frost symbol will remain illuminated
until the temperature rises to 42°F (6°C).
The temperature display can be turned
off by pressing either the SET or
SCROLL buttons on the left hand switch
housing. The previous screen will be
displayed
with
the
frost
symbol
illuminated until the temperature rises
to 42°F (6°C).

Warning
Black ice (sometimes called clear ice)
can form at temperatures several
degrees above freezing (32°F (0°C)),
especially on bridges and in shaded
areas.
Always take extra care when the
temperatures are low and reduce
speed in potentially hazardous driving
conditions such as bad weather.
Excess speed, hard acceleration, heavy
braking or hard cornering when roads
are slippery may result in loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
When the motorcycle is stationary the
heat of the engine may affect the
accuracy of the ambient temperature
display.
