Turn Cruise On
NOTE
Cruise control operates when:
- At least 10 seconds have lapsed since the propulsion was enabled.
- Vehicle speed is between 40–145 km/h (25–90 mph).
See Figure 1. Press the CRUISE switch to turn on cruise (1). When on, the cruise indicator on the Instrument Module (IM) will be displayed in green color without speed.
Set Cruise Speed
See Figure 1. When the motorcycle reaches your intended speed, press the SET/- switch down to set the cruise speed (2). The cruise indicator will now have the set speed shown next to it in green.
If necessary, adjust the cruise speed to match the speed limit or traffic conditions:
Increase/Decrease Cruise
Tapping the RES/+ switch up increases speed by 1.6 km/h (1 mph). Holding up the RES/+ switch gradually increases cruise speed.
Tapping the SET/+ switch down decreases speed by 1.6 km/h (1 mph). Holding the switch down gradually decreases cruise speed.
Disengage Cruise
See Figure 1. To drop out of cruise speed, roll the throttle closed through the roll-off switch (3). The cruise indicator and set speed will change to a red color.
Cruise also disengages when the rider:
- Squeezes the front brake lever or presses the rear brake pedal.
- Rolls the throttle open more than 16 km/h (10 mph) above the set speed.
Resume Cruise
NOTE
If the current speed is more than 24 km/h (15 mph) below the cruise speed, cruise will not resume.
See Figure 1. If cruise has been disengaged yet the cruise icon is still shown, pressing the RES/+ switch up resumes cruise (4). The motorcycle automatically resumes cruise at the set speed and the indicator and set speed change back to a green color.
