18.2 Motorcycle traction control (MTC)

The motorcycle traction control (MTC) lowers the engine torque in case of loss of traction
in the rear wheel. Depending on the motorcycle traction control setting, a slight slip on the
rear wheel may be desirable. Example: offroad.
Info
When traction control is switched off, the rear wheel may spin during high accelera-
tion and on surfaces with low grip.
After the ignition is switched back on, traction control is enabled again.
Traction control is controlled via the Motorcycle menu on the combination instrument. The
traction control can be switched off in the MTC menu.
