Info
Press the electric starter button for a maximum of 5 seconds. Wait for 30

Activating Launch Control
Info
The
Launch Control
assists the rider to optimally accelerate the motorcycle at the beginning of a race. The maximum speed of
the engine with the throttle valve fully opened (full throttle) is reduced. After the start, it is gradually increased up to the max-
imum engine speed. The rider opens the throttle fully throughout this procedure. The clutch must be activated exactly as it
would be without an active
Launch Control
.
Condition
The motorcycle is stationary.
The engine is running at idle speed.
The transmission is in neutral.

Press and hold

and

buttons simultaneously.
Malfunction indicator lamp flashes orange rapidly.
Info
Several seconds after the vehicle starts,
Launch Control
is deactivated auto-
matically.
The
Launch Control
is also deactivated in the following cases (malfunction
indicator lamp no longer flashes): After full throttle, the throttle valve was
closed by more than 1/3 of the way and/or there is no start within 3 min-
utes.
To reactivate
Launch Control
, the engine must first be switched off for at
least 10 seconds for safety reasons. This must occur regardless of whether
the engine was started or not.
8.4
Activating traction control
Info
The traction control reduces excessive slip on the rear wheel in favor of more control and propulsion, particularly in wet condi-
tions.
When traction control is switched off, the rear wheel may spin more during high acceleration and on surfaces with low grip.
Traction control can be switched on or off during the ride.
The setting most recently selected is activated again when restarting.
