proach surfaces that may be
slippery with caution an d avoi d es-
pecially slippery surfaces.
There are three traction control system
modes:  “TCS 1”: Default mode
 “TCS 2”: Sporty mode
This mode decreases traction
control system assist, allowing the
rear wheel to spin more freely than
“TCS 1”.
 “TCS OFF”: The traction control
system is turned off. The system
may also be automatically dis-
abled in some riding conditions
(see “Resetting” on page 3-28).
When the key is turned to “ON”, the
traction control system is enabled and
“TCS 1” is displayed in the multi-func-
tion meter.
The traction control system mode can
be changed only when the key is in the
“ON” position and the vehicle is not
moving.
TIPUse the mode “TCS OFF” to help free
the rear wheel if the motorcycle gets
stuck in mud, sand, or other soft sur-
faces.NOTICE

Spoke wheelsTo maximize the performance, durabil-
ity, and safe operation of your vehicle,
note the following points regarding the
specified wheels.
 The wheel rims should be
checked for cracks, bends, warp-
age or other damage, and the
spokes for looseness or damage
before each ride. If any damage is
found, have a Yamaha dealer re-
place the wheel. Do not attempt
even the smallest repair to the
wheel. A deformed or cracked
wheel must be replaced.
 The wheel should be balanced
whenever either the tire or wheel
has been changed or replaced. An
unbalanced wheel can result in
poor performance, adverse han-
dling characteristics, and a short-
ened tire life.
