This mode offers a sportier engine re-
sponse in the low- to mid-speed range
compared to the touring mode.
EAU77281
Traction control system
The traction control system (TCS)
helps maintain traction when accelerat-
ing on slippery surfaces, such as un-
paved or wet roads. If sensors detect
that the rear wheel is starting to slip (un-
controlled spinning), the traction control
system assists by
regulating engine
power as needed until traction is re-
stored.
When traction control has engaged, the
“ ” indicator light will flash. You may
notice changes in engine response or
exhaust sounds.
WARNING
EWA18860
The traction control system is not a
substitute for riding appropriately
for the conditions. Traction control
cannot prevent loss of traction due
to excessive speed when entering
turns, when accelerating hard at a
sharp lean angle, or while braking,
and cannot prevent front wheel slip-
ping. As with any vehicle, approach
surfaces that may be slippery with
caution and avoid especially slip-
pery surfaces.

When the vehicle is turned on, traction
control is automatically turned on.
To turn the traction control system off,
see page 5-10.
TIP
Turn the traction control system off to
help free the rear wheel if the vehicle
gets stuck in mud, sand, or other soft
surfaces.
NOTICE
ECA16801
Use only the specified tires. (See
page 8-18.) Using different sized
tires will prevent the traction control
system from controlling tire rotation
accurately.
Resetting the traction control sys-
tem
The traction control system will auto-
matically disable under certain condi-
tions; such as when a sensor fault is
detected, or when only one wheel is al-
lowed to rotate for more than a few sec-
onds. Should this happen, the “ ”
indicator light will come on, and possi-
bly the “ ” warning light, too.
TIP
When the vehicle is on the centerstand,
do not rev the engine for an extended
period of time. Otherwise, the traction
control system will automatically dis-
able and need to be reset.
If the traction control system automati-
cally disables, try resetting it as follows.
1. Stop the vehicle and turn it off completely.
2. Wait a few seconds and then turn the vehicle power on.
3. The “ ” indicator light should turn off and the system be enabled.
TIP
If the “ ” indicator light remains on af-
ter resetting, the vehicle may still be rid-
den; however, have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle as soon as possible.
4. Have a Yamaha dealer check the vehicle and turn off the “ ” warn-
ing light.

TIP
This model is equipped with:
a lean angle sensor to stop the en-
gine in case of a turnover. In this
case, the engine trouble warning
light will come on, but this is not a
malfunction. Turn the vehicle pow-
er off to extinguish the warning
light. Failing to do so will prevent
the engine from starting even
though the engine will crank when
pushing the start switch.
an engine auto-stop system. The
engine stops automatically if left
idling for 20 minutes. If the engine
stops, simply push the start switch
to restart the engine.
