The choice of the correct level depends on 3 main variables:
1) The amount of grip available (type of tyre, amount of
tyre wear, the track surface, weather conditions, etc.).
2) The characteristics of the circuit (bends all taken at
similar speeds or at very different speeds).
3) The riding style (whether the rider favours a more
“rounded” or a more “angular” style).
The relation of the DTC sensitivity level to grip conditions:
The choice of level setting depends greatly on the grip
conditions of the track/circuit (see below, tips for use on
the track and on the road).
The relation of the DTC sensitivity level to the circuit
characteristics:
If all the corners on the track/circuit can be taken at a similar
speed, it will be easier to find an intervention level that is
satisfactory for every bend; on the other hand, if the track
has, for example, one corner that is much slower than all
the others, it will necessary to find a compromise level
(on the slow corner the DC will tend intervene more than
on the faster corners).
The relation of the DTC sensitivity level to riding style:
The DTC will tend to intervene more with a “rounded”
riding style, where the bike is leaned over further, rather
than with an “angular” style, where the bike is straightened
up as quickly possible on exiting a corner.
Tips for use on the track
We recommend that level 8 is used for a couple of full laps
(to allow the tyres to warm up) in order to get used to the
system. Then try levels 7, 6, etc, in succession until you
identify the DTC sensitivity level that suits you best
(always try each level for at least two laps to allow the
tyres to warm up).
Once you have found a satisfactory setting for all the corners
except one or two slow ones, where the system tends to
intervene too much, you can try to modify your riding style
slightly to a more “angular” approach to cornering i.e.
straighten up more rapidly on exiting the corner, instead
of immediately trying a different level setting.
Tips for use on the track
Activate the DTC, select level 8 and ride the motorcycle in
your usual style; if the level of DTC sensitivity seems
excessive, try reducing the setting to level 7, 6, etc., until
you find the level that suits you best.
If changes in the grip conditions and/or circuit characteristics
and/or your riding style, and the level setting is no longer
suitable, switch to the next level up or down and proceed as
described above to determine the best setting (e.g. if with
level 7 the DTC sensitivity seems excessive, switch to
level 6; alternatively, if on level 7 you cannot perceive any
DTC intervention, switch to level 8).
