LCD tachometer The LCD tachometer allows the rider to
monitor the engine speed and keep it
within the ideal power range.
When the key is turned to “ON”, all of
the display segments of the LCD ta-
chometer will appear one after the oth-
er across the r/min range and then
disappear, in order to test the electrical
circuit.NOTE:The first segment of the tachometer will
flash while idling or riding until the cool-
ant temperature has reached 60 °C(140 °F), so this is not a malfunction.
CAUTION:

Do not operate the engine in the ta-
chometer red zone.Red zone: 14000 r/min and above

two tachometers, one LCD and
one digital (which show engine
r/min)


an odometer (which shows the to-
tal distance traveled)


two tripmeters (which show the
distance traveled since they were
last set to zero)


a fuel reserve tripmeter (which
shows the distance traveled since
the bottom segment of the fuel
meter started flashing)


a clock


an air intake temperature display


a fuel meter


a coolant temperature meter


a self-diagnosis device
NOTE:

Be sure to turn the key to “ON” be-
fore using the “SELECT” and “RE-
SET” buttons.


For the U.K. only: To switch the
speedometer and odometer/trip-
meter displays between kilometers
and miles, press the “SELECT”button for at least two seconds.Odometer, tripmeter and digital ta-
chometer modes
Pushing the “SELECT” button switches
the display between the odometer
mode “ODO” and the tripmeter modes
“TRIP 1” and “TRIP 2” (“TRIP F”) and
the tachometer “E” in the following or-
der:
ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → (TRIP F)
→ E → ODO
When the fuel amount in the fuel tank
decreases to 3.6 L (0.95 US gal) (0.79
Imp.gal), the bottom segment of the
fuel meter will start flashing, and the
odometer display will automatically
change to the fuel reserve tripmeter
mode “TRIP F” and start counting thedistance traveled from that point. In that
case, pushing the “SELECT” button
switches the display between the vari-
ous tripmeter and odometer modes in
the following order:
TRIP F → E → ODO → TRIP 1 → TRIP
2 → TRIP F
To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “SELECT” button, and then
push the “RESET” button for at least
one second. If you do not reset the fuel
reserve tripmeter manually, it will reset
itself automatically and the display will
return to the prior mode after refueling
and traveling 5 km (3 mi).
