gear lever must be fully released
in order to be able to make an-
other gear shift using the Pro
Gear-shift Assistance function.
When changing gear using the
gear-shift assistance function, the
throttle setting (twist-grip posi-
tion) must be kept constant be-
fore and during the gear-change
sequence. Changing the acceler-
ator twist-grip position during the
gear-shift sequence may cause
the function to abort and/or the
gear change to fail. No assis-
tance is provided by the gear-
shift assistance function during
gear changes made using the
clutch.
Changing down
Downshifts are assisted up to
the maximum revs in the gear
into which you are changing.
Overrevving is thus prevented.

Hill Start Control
with Hill Start Control
OE
Hill Start Control prevents the
motorcycle rolling backwards in
an uncontrolled manner when
starting off on an uphill incline
by controlled intervention in the
semi-integrated ABS system
without the rider having to con-
stantly operate the brake lever.
Thus, when Hill Start Control is
activated, the pressure in the rear
brake system is built up so that
the motorcycle remains station-
ary on a sloping surface. The
holding pressure in the braking
system depends on the gradient
of the slope.
