TIPThe ABS performs a self-diagno-
sis test each time the vehicle first
starts off after the key is turned to
“ON” and the vehicle has traveled
at a speed of 10 km/h (6 mi/h) or
higher. During this test, a “click-
ing” noise can be heard from the
front of the vehicle, and if either
brake lever is even slightly ap-
plied, a vibration can be felt at the
lever, but these do not indicate a
malfunction.
This ABS has a test mode which
allows the owner to experience
the pulsation at the brake levers
when the ABS is operating. How-
ever, special tools are required, so
please consult your Yamaha deal-
er.NOTICE
ECA20100
Be careful not to damage the wheel
sensor or wheel sensor rotor; other-
wise, improper performance of the
ABS will result.

Traction control systemThe traction control system (TCS)
helps maintain traction when acceler-
ating on slippery surfaces, such as un-
paved or wet roads. If sensors detect
that the rear wheel is starting to slip
(uncontrolled spinning), the traction
control system assists by regulating
engine power until traction is restored.
When traction control has engaged,
the “ ” indicator light will flash. You
may notice changes in engine re-
sponse or exhaust sound.
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.

6 Setting the traction control system
When the vehicle is turned on, traction
control is automatically turned on.
To turn the traction control system off,
use the “MENU” switch to change the
multi-function display to the traction
control system display. Then push the
“MENU” switch for three seconds. The
display will show “TCS OFF”, and
the “ ” indicator light will come on.
TIPTurn 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 9-19.) 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
seconds. Should this happen,
the “ ” indicator light will come on,
and possibly the “ ” warning light,
too.

Vehicle data recordingThis model’s ECU stores certain vehi-
cle data to assist in the diagnosis of
malfunctions and for research, statisti-
cal analysis and development purpos-
es.
Although the sensors and recorded
data will vary by model, the main data
points are:
Vehicle status and engine perfor-
mance data
Fuel-injection and emission-relat-
ed data
This data will be uploaded only when a
special Yamaha diagnostic tool is at-
tached to the vehicle, such as when
maintenance checks or service proce-
dures are performed.
Vehicle data uploaded will be handled
appropriately according to the follow-
