Warning
After selecting a riding mode, operate
the motorcycle in an area free from

in the display.
Within 30

ON.
In the event of an incomplete riding
mode change:
• Safely bring the motorcycle to a
stop.
• Select neutral gear.

ON again.
• Select the desired riding mode.
• Restart the engine and continue
riding.

switch whilst the motorcycle is moving.
Always bring the motorcycle to a stop

Stopping the engine by turning off the
