cally adjusts accordin
g to the vehicle’s
lean angle. To maximize acceleration,
when the vehicle is upright a less
amount of traction control is applied.
When cornering, a greater amount of
traction control is applied.
TIP
The traction control system may
engage when the vehicle travels
over a bump.
You may notice slight changes in
engine and exhaust sounds when
the traction control or other YRC
systems engage.
When TCS is turned off, SCS,
LCS, and LIF are also turned offautomatically.
WARNING
EWA15432
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 motorcycle, ap-
proach surfaces that may be
slippery with caution and avoid es-pecially slippery surfaces.
When the key is turned to “ON”, the
traction control system automatically
turns on. The traction control system
can be turned on or off manually only
when the key is in the “ON” position and
the motorcycle is stopped.TIPTurn the traction control system off to
help free the rear wheel if the motorcy-
cle gets stuck in mud, sand, or othersoft surfaces.
NOTICE
ECA16801
Use only the specified tires. (See
page 7-19.) Using different sized
tires will prevent the traction control
system from controlling tire rotationaccurately.
SCS
The slide control system regulates en-
gine power output when a sideward
slide is detected in the rear wheel. It ad-
justs power output based on data from
the IMU. This system supports the TCS
to contribute to a smoother ride.
LCS
The launch control system helps the rid-
er achieve smooth and swift launches
from the starting grid. It keeps engine
speed from rising above 8,000 r/min
even when the throttle grip is fully
turned. The LCS regulates engine pow-
er output in conjunction with the TCS
and LIF systems for optimal traction and
reduced wheel lift.

NOTICE
ECA22950
Even when using LCS, the clutch le-
ver must be released gradually toavoid clutch damage.TIPLCS is intended for track use only.
QSS
The quick shift system allows for clutch
lever-less, electronically-assisted shift-
ing. When the sensor on the shift rod
detects the appropriate motion in the
shift pedal, engine power output is mo-
mentarily adjusted to allow for the gear
change to occur.
QSS does not operate when the clutch
lever is pulled, therefore normal shifting
can be done even when QSS is set to
on. Check the QS indicator for current
status and usability information. Upshifting conditions
Vehicle speed of at least 20 km/h
(12 mi/h)
Engine speed of at least 2200 r/min
Accelerating (open throttle)
Downshifting conditions
Vehicle speed of at least 20 km/h
(12 mi/h)
Engine speed of at least 2000 r/min
Engine speed sufficiently away
from red zone
Decelerating and throttle ful-
ly-closed
TIP
QS and QS can be individu-
ally set.
Shifting into or out of neutral mustbe done using the clutch lever.
LIF
The lift control system reduces the rate
at which the front wheel will continue to
rise during extreme acceleration, such
as during starts or out-of-corner exits.
When front-wheel lift is detected, en-
gine power is regulated to slow front-wheel lift while still providing good
acceleration.

Immobilizer system indicator light
“”
When the key is turned to “OFF” and 30
seconds have passed, the indicator
light will flash steadily to indicate the im-
mobilizer system is enabled. After 24
hours have passed, the indicator light
will stop flashing, however the immobi-
lizer system is still enabled.
The electrical circuit of the indicator
light can be checked by turning the key
to “ON”. The indicator light should
come on for a few seconds, and then
go off.
If the indicator light does not come on
initially when the key is turned to “ON”,
if the indicator light remains on, or if the
indicator light flashes in a pattern (if a
problem is detected in the immobilizer
system, the immobili zer system indica-
tor light will flash in a pattern), have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.TIPIf the immobilizer system indicator light
flashes in the pattern, slowly 5 times
then quickly 2 times, this could be
caused by transponder interference. If
this occurs, try the following.
1. Make sure there are no other im- mobilizer keys close to the main
switch. Other immobilizer system
keys may cause signal interfer-
ence and prevent the engine from
starting.
2. Use the code re-registering key to start the engine.
3. If the engine starts, turn it off, and try starting the engine with the
standard keys.
4. If one or both of the standard keys do not start the engine, take the
vehicle and all 3 keys to a Yamaha
dealer to have the standard keys
re-registered.

Stability control indicator light “SC”
This indicator light comes on when the
TCS, SCS, or LIF systems have en-
gaged. It will also come on if the TCS is
set to “OFF” or if the TCS system be-
comes disabled while riding.
The electrical circui t of the light can be
checked by turning the key to “ON”.
The light should come on for a few sec-
onds and then go off. If the light does not come on initially when the key is
turned to “ON”, or if the light remains
on, have a Yamaha dealer check the
vehicle.
EAU78410
Oil pressure and coolant tempera-
ture warning light “ ”
This warning light comes on if the en-
gine oil pressure is low or if the coolant
temperature is high. If this occurs, stop
the engine immediately.
The electrical circuit of the warning light
can be checked by turning the key to
“ON”. The warning light should come
on again after going off briefly, and then
remain on until the engine is started. If
the warning light does not come on ini-
tially when the key is turned to “ON”,
have a Yamaha dealer check the elec-
trical circuit.NOTICE
ECA22441
If the oil pressure and coolant warn-
ing light does not go off after start-
ing the engine or if it comes on while
the engine is running, stop the vehi-
cle and engine immediately.

WARNING
EWA18210
Stop the vehicle before making any
setting changes. Changing settings
while riding can distract the opera-
tor and increase the risk of an acci-dent.
Speedometer
The speedometer shows the vehicle’s
traveling speed.
TIPThe display can be switched between
kilometers and miles. See “Unit” onpage 4-19.

The tachometer shows the engine
speed, as measured by the rotational
velocity of the crankshaft, in revolutions
per minute (r/min).TIP
In TRACK MODE, the tachometer
starts at 8000 r/min.
In STREET MODE, the tachome-
ter can be color-adjusted and has
a revolution peak hold indicatorwhich can be turned on or off.

sumed
FUEL AVG: average fuel consumption
CRNT FUEL: current fuel consumption
