Improper use of the cruise con-
trol system may result in loss of
control, which could lead to an
accident. Do not activate the
cruise control system in heavy
traffic, poor weather conditions,
or among winding, slippery,
hilly, rough or gravel roads.

When traveling uphill or down-
hill, the cruise control system
may not be able to maintain the
set cruising speed.

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.


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

“TCS-MODE”This model is equipped with the traction
control system, the slide control system
(SCS), and the lift control system (LIF).
These are grouped together into
“TCS-MODE”. “TCS-MODE” has 4 set-
tings:
“TCS-MODE M” is customizable in the
settings MENU, see page 4-16.
Traction control system
The traction control system helps main-
tain traction when accelerating. If sen-
sors detect that the rear wheel is
starting to slip (uncontrolled spinning),
the traction control system assists by
regulating engine power as needed un-
til traction is restored. The stability con-
trol indicator light “ ” flashes to let the
rider know that traction control has en-
gaged. This traction control system automati-
cally adjusts according to the vehicle’s
lean angle. To maximize acceleration,
when the vehicle is upright a lesser
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 sys-
tems engage.

The traction control system can
only be turned off by setting
“TCS-MODE” to “OFF”, using the
MODE switches. See page 4-4 for

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.

Quick shifterThe quick shifter allows for clutch le-
ver-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.
The quick shifter does not operate
when the clutch lever is pulled, there-
fore normal shifting can be done even
when the quick shifter is set to on.
Check the quick shifter indicator for cur-
rent status and usability information.

BCThe brake control system regulates hy-
draulic brake pressure for the front and
rear wheels when the brakes are ap-
plied and wheel lock is detected. This
system has two settings.
BC1 is standard ABS, which adjusts
brake pressure based on vehicle speed
and wheel speed data. BC1 is de-
signed to engage and maximize brak-
ing when the vehicle is upright.
BC2 uses additional data from the IMU
to regulate applied brake power when
cornering to suppress lateral wheel slip.

Immobilizer systemThis vehicle is equipped with an immo-
bilizer system to help prevent theft by
re-registering codes in the standard
keys. This system consists of the fol-
lowing:
a code re-registering key

two standard keys

a transponder (in each key)

an immobilizer unit (on the vehicle)

an ECU (on the vehicle)

a system indicator light (page 4-7)
About the keys
The code re-registering key is used to
register codes in each standard key. Store the code re-registering key in a
safe place. Use a standard key for daily
operation.

ing is necessary, bring the vehicle and
the code re-registering key along with
any remaining standard keys to a
Yamaha dealer to have them re-regis-
tered.
TIP
Keep the standard keys as well as
keys of other immobilizer systems
away from the code re-registering
key.

Keep other immobilizer system
keys away from the main switch as
they may cause signal interfer-ence.
