18.2 Motorcycle traction control (MTC)

The motorcycle traction control (MTC) lowers the tightening torque in case of loss of trac-
tion 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 motorcycle traction control is switched off, the rear wheel may spin during
high acceleration and on surfaces with low grip.
After the ignition is switched back on, the motorcycle traction control is enabled
again.
