Ride mode
Selection
Three riding modes enable the
motorcycle's characteristics to
adapt to the prevailing weather
conditions, the road and traffic,
and the rider's style of riding:
RAIN
ROAD
DYNAMIC
Each of these modes produces
perceptible differences in the
way the motorcycle behaves.
DTC can be switched off in each
mode; the explanations below in-
variably refer to conditions with
the system switched ON. The
mode last selected is automatic-
ally reactivated after the ignition
has been switched off and then
on again.
The basic rule is: the sportier
the mode you select, the more
directly can you tap into the en-
gine's reserves of power. At the
same time, the level of rider as-
sistance that the DTC system
offers decreases accordingly.
Consequently, you must always
bear the following in mind with
regard to your selection of a ride
mode: the sportier the setting,
the greater the challenge to your
riding skill.
RAIN
The engine's full power is not
made available. Power increase
when you open the throttle is
reserved, engine response is cor-
respondingly soft.
The DTC system intervenes early
enough to prevent the rear wheel
from spinning. On road surfaces
with high to medium grip (dry
and wet asphalt to dry cobble-
stones) the motorcycle remains
very stable; movements of the
tail are clearly perceptible only on
slippery road surfaces (wet bitu-
men or wet cobblestones).
ROAD
The engine's full power is
available in this mode. Power
increase when you open the
throttle is more direct than in
RAIN mode, the engine responds
more rapidly.
DTC system intervention is later
than in RAIN mode. On road
surfaces with high to medium
grip (dry and wet asphalt to dry
cobblestones) the motorcycle re-
mains stable. Slight rear-wheel
drift is perceptible. Movements
of the tail are clearly perceptible
on slippery road surfaces (wet
bitumen or wet cobblestones).
DYNAMIC
The DYNAMIC mode is the spor-
tiest mode.
Power increase and engine re-
sponse are the same as in ROAD
mode. Response to rider input,
however, is considerably more
direct.
