Speedometer unit The speedometer unit is equipped with
the following:l
a digital speedometer (which
shows riding speed)
l
an odometer (which shows the to-
tal distance traveled)
l
two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero)
l
a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled on the
fuel reserve)
l
a clockOdometer and tripmeter modes
Pushing the “SELECT” button switches
the display between the odometer
mode “ODO” and the tripmeter modes
“TRIP 1” and “TRIP 2” in the following
order:
ODO
® TRIP 1
® TRIP 2
® ODO
If the fuel level warning light comes on
(see page 3-4), the odometer display
will automatically change to the fuel re-
serve tripmeter mode “TRIP F” and
start counting the distance traveled
from that point. In that case, pushing
the “SELECT” button switches the dis-
play between the various tripmeter and
odometer modes in the following order:
TRIP F
® TRIP 1
® TRIP 2
® ODO

TRIP FTo reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “SELECT” button, and then
push the “RESET” button. If you do not
reset the fuel reserve tripmeter manu-
ally, it will reset itself automatically and
the display will return to “TRIP 1” after
refueling and traveling 5 km.
NOTE:@ After resetting the fuel reserve tripme-
ter, the display will return to “TRIP 1”,
unless a different mode had been pre-
viously selected; in that case, the dis-
play automatically returns to the prior
mode. @Clock mode
To change the display to the clock
mode, push both the “SELECT” and
“RESET” buttons.

vated and the throttle grip is turned to
increase the speed by up to 8 km/h, the
cruise control system will return to theset speed after the throttle grip is re-
leased. However, if the speed is in-
creased by more than 8 km/h, the
cruise control system will be deactivat-
