do not set a new cruising speed, when
you return the throttle grip, the vehicle
will decelerate to the previously set
cruising speed.
Deactivating the cruise control sys-
tem
Perform one of the following operations
to cancel the set cruising speed. The
“ ” indicator light will go off.

Turn the throttle grip past the
closed position in the deceleration
direction.

Apply the front or rear brake.

Disengage the clutch.

Shift gears
Press the power switch to turn off the
cruise control system. The “ ” indica-
tor light and the “ ” indicator light will

TIPTraveling speed decreases as soon as
the cruise control system is deactivat-ed; unless the throttle grip is turned.
Using the resume function
Press the “RES+” side of the cruise
control setting switch to reactivate the
cruise control system. The traveling
speed will return to the previously set
cruising speed. The “ ” indicator light
will come on.
WARNING
EWA16351
It is dangerous to use the resume
function when the previously set
cruising speed is too high for cur-rent conditions.TIPPressing the power switch while the
system is operating will turn the system
off completely and erase the previously set cruising speed. You will not be able
to use the resume function until a new
cruising speed has been set.
Automatic deactivation of the cruisecontrol systemThe cruise control system for this mod-
el is electronically controlled and is
linked with the other control systems.
The cruise control system will automat-
ically become deactivated under the
following conditions:
The cruise control system is not
able to maintain the set cruising
speed.

Wheel slip or wheel spin is detect-
ed. (If the traction control system
has not been turned off, the trac-
tion control system will work.)

The start/engine stop switch is set
to the “ ” position.

The engine stalls.

The sidestand is lowered.
When traveling with a set cruising
speed, if the cruise control system is
deactivated under the above condi-
tions, the “ ” indicator light will go off
and the “ ” indicator light will flash for

4 seconds, and then go off.
When not traveling with a set cruising
speed, if the start/engine stop switch is
set to the “ ” position, the engine
stalls, or the sidestand is lowered, then
the “ ” indicator light will go off (the
“ ” indicator light will not flash).
If the cruise control system is automati-
cally deactivated, please stop and con-
firm that your vehicle is in good
operating condition.
Before using the cruise control system
again, activate it using the power
switch.
TIPIn some cases, the cruise control sys-
tem may not be able to maintain the set
cruising speed when the
vehicle is trav-
eling uphill or downhill.
When the vehicle is traveling up-
hill, the actual traveling speed may
become lower than the set cruising
speed. If this occurs, accelerate to
the desired traveling speed using
the throttle.

When the vehicle is traveling
downhill, the actual traveling
speed may become higher than the set cruising speed. If this oc-
curs, the setting switch cannot be
used to adjust the set cruising
speed. To reduce the traveling
speed, apply the brakes. When the
brakes are applied, the cruise con-
trol system will become deactivat-
ed.

“D-MODE”“D-MODE” is an electronically con-
trolled engine performance system.
WARNING
EWA18440
Do not change the drive mode whilethe vehicle is moving.
The “D-MODE” system consists of 4
different control maps which regulate
engine response and output, thus pro-
viding you with a selection of modes to
fit your preferences and the riding envi-
ronment.
D-MODE 1
- Sporty engine response
D-MODE 2 - Moderate engine re-
sponse
D-MODE 3 - Mild engine response
D-MODE 4 - Mild engine response and
limits engine outputTIP
The current “D-MODE” setting is
shown in the MODE display. (See
page 4-12.)

The current “D-MODE” setting is
saved when the vehicle is turned
off.

The “D-MODE” is controlled by the

more information on
“TCS-MODE”.

When “TCS-MODE” has been set
to “OFF”, the traction control sys-
tem, SCS and LIF systems are allturned off together.WARNING
EWA15433
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 power is on, the trac-
tion 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 mo-
torcycle is stopped.
TIPSet “TCS-MODE” to “OFF” to help free
the rear wheel if the motorcycle gets
stuck in mud, sand, or other soft surfac-es.NOTICE
ECA16801
Use only the specified tires. (See
page 7-16.) 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 (Inertial Measurement Unit).
This system supports the traction con-
trol system to contribute to a smoother
ride.
LIF
The lift control system reduces the rate
at which the front wheel rises during ex-
treme acceleration, such as during starts or out-of-corner exits. When
front-wheel lift is detected, engine pow-
er is regulated to slow front-wheel lift
while still providing good acceleration.

ABS warning light “ ”
In normal operation, the ABS warning
light comes on when the vehicle is
turned on, and goes off after traveling
at a speed of 5 km/h (3 mi/h) or higher.TIPIf the warning light does not work as de-
scribed above, or if the warning light comes on while riding, the ABS may not
work correctly. Have a Yamaha dealer
check the vehicle as soon as possible.
WARNING
EWA21120
If the ABS warning light does not
turn off after reaching 5 km/h (3
mi/h), or if the warning light comes
on while riding: 
Use extra caution to avoid pos-
sible wheel lock during emer-
gency braking.

Have a Yamaha dealer check thevehicle as soon as possible.

Immobilizer system indicator light
“”
When the main switch is turned off and
30 seconds have passed, the indicator
light will flash steadil
y 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.TIPWhen the vehicle is turned on, this light should come on for a few seconds and
then go off. If the light does not come
on, or if the light remains on, have a
Yamaha dealer check the vehicle.
Transponder interference
If 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.
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.
