Even when using LCS, the clutch le-
ver must be released gradually to
avoid clutch damage.
TIP
LCS is intended for track use only.
QSS
The quick shift system allows for
full-throttle, clutch lever-less, electroni-
cally-assisted upshifts. When the
switch positioned on the shift lever rod
detects motion in the shift lever, engine
power output is adjusted and drive
torque is momentarily cancelled out to
allow for the gear change to occur.
TIP
QSS operates when traveling at
least 20 km/h with an engine
speed of 2000 r/min or higher and
only when accelerating.
QSS does not operate when the
clutch lever is pulled.
LIF
The lift control system reduces the rate
at which the front wheel will continue to
rise during extreme acceleration, such
as during starts or out-of-corner exits.
When front-wheel lift is detected, en-
gine power is regulated to slow
front-wheel lift while still providing good
acceleration.
ERS (YZF-R1M)
The Electronic Racing Suspension by
Öhlins features electrically-controlled
suspension damping. The system is
controlled by the SCU which makes in-
dependent adjustments of both the
front and rear suspension’s compres-
sion stroke and rebound stroke damp-
ing forces. There are two modes,
automatic and manual. Automatic
mode is an active suspension control
system which actively adjusts suspen-
sion damping forces based on running
conditions. Manual mode is a finely-tu-
neable traditional suspension set-up.
