Eco in
dicator
This indicator comes on when the vehi-
cle is being operated in an environ-

The indicator goes off when the vehicle
is stopped.
TIPConsider the following tips to reduce
fuel consumption:  Avoid high engine speeds during
acceleration.
 Travel at a constant speed.
 Select the transmission gear that
is appropriate for the vehicle
speed.
Transmission gear display
The transmission gear display shows
the selected gear. The neutral position
is indicated by “–”.
Clock The clock uses a 12-hour time system.
TIPWhen the main switch is turned off, the

Multi-function display
The multi-function display can show:  an odometer
 two tripmeters
 a countdown tripmeter
 a fuel reserve tripmeter
 an instantaneous fuel consump-
tion display
 an average fuel consumption dis-
play
 a coolant temperature display
 an air temperature display
 a brightness control mode The odometer shows the total distance
the vehicle has traveled. The standard
tripmeters show the distance traveled
since they were last reset. The count-
down tripmeter shows the remaining
distance to travel since it was last set.
The fuel reserve tripmeter shows the
distance traveled since the last seg-
ment of the fuel meter began flashing.
TIP
The odometer will lock at 999999
and cannot be reset.
 The tripmeter will reset to 0 and
continue counting after 9999.9 is
reached.
 The countdown tripmeter does
not automatically reset.Push the top set button to switch the

3 Instantaneous fuel consumption
This function calculates the fuel con-
sumption under current riding condi-
tions.
The instantaneous fuel consumption
display can be set to either “km/L”,
“L/100 km” when using kilometers.
To switch the fuel consumption units,
push the top set button until the mea-
surement units change. When using
miles, the fuel consumption unit is
“MPG”.
 “km/L”: The distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 L of fuel under the
current riding conditions is shown. 
“L/100 km”: The amount of fuel
necessary to travel 100 km under
the current riding conditions is
shown.
 “MPG”: The distance that can be
traveled on 1.0 Imp.gal of fuel un-
der the current riding conditions is
shown.
To switch the instantaneous fuel con-
sumption settings, push and hold the
left set button until the display chang-
es.
TIPIf traveling at speeds under 20 km/h
(12 mi/h), “_ _._” is displayed.Averag e fuel consumption This display shows the average fuel
consumption since it was last reset.
The average fuel consumption can be
set to either “AVE_ _._ km/L”, “AVE_
_._ L/100 km” when using kilometers.
To switch the fuel consumption units,
push the top set button until the mea-
surement units change. When using
miles, the fuel consumption is “AVE_
_._ MPG”.
 “AVE_ _._ km/L”: The average dis-
tance that can be traveled on 1.0 L
of fuel is shown.
 “AVE_ _._ L/100 km”: The average
amount of fuel necessary to travel
100 km is shown.
 “AVE_ _._ MPG”: The average dis-
tance that can be traveled on
1.0 Imp.gal of fuel is shown.
To reset the average fuel consumption,
select it and while the digits flash push
the bottom set button until it is reset.
TIPAfter resetting the average fuel con-
sumption, “_ _._” will be shown until
the vehicle has traveled 1 km (0.6 mi).

WARNING
EWA17380

Improper brakin g can cause
loss of control or traction. Al-
ways use b oth brakes an d apply
them smoothly.
 Make sure that the motorcycle
and the en gine have sufficiently
slowe d b efore shiftin g to a low-
er gear. En gag in g a lower gear
when the vehicle or en gine
speed is too hi gh coul d make
the rear wheel lose traction or
the en gine to over-rev. This
coul d cause loss of control, an
acci dent an d injury. It coul d also
cause en gine or drive train dam-
a g e.
EAU16811
Tips for re ducin g fuel con-
sumptionFuel consumption depends largely on
your riding style. Consider the follow-
ing tips to reduce fuel consumption:
 Shift up swiftly, and avoid high en-
gine speeds during acceleration.
 Do not rev the engine while shift-
ing down, and avoid high engine
speeds with no load on the en-
gine.
 Turn the engine off instead of let-
ting it idle for an extended length
of time (e.g., in traffic jams, at traf-
fic lights or at railroad crossings).
EAU17214
Parkin gWhen parking, stop the engine, and
then remove the key from the main
switch.
WARNING
EWA10312
Since the en gine an d exhaust
system can become very hot,
park in a place where pe destri-
ans or chil dren are not likely to
touch them an d b e burne d.
 Do not park on a slope or on soft
groun d, otherwise the vehicle
may overturn, increasin g the
risk of a fuel leak an d fire.
 Do not park near grass or other
flammab le materials which
