NOTICE
Even when using LCS, the clutch le-
2
ver must be released gradually to
avoid clutch damage.
3
TIP
LCS is intended for track use only.
4
QSS
5
The quick shift system allows for clutch
lever-less, electronically-assisted shift-
6
ing. When the sensor on the shift rod
detects the appropriate motion in the
shift pedal, engine power output is mo-
7
mentarily adjusted to allow for the gear
change to occur.
8
QSS does not operate when the clutch
lever is pulled, therefore normal shifting
9
can be done even when QSS is set to
on. Check the QS indicator for current
status and usability information.

ERS (YZF-R1M)
The electronic racing suspension by
Öhlins features OBTi (objective-based
tuning interface) for simplified, situa-
tion-focused setting changes of the au-
tomatic suspension control modes. In
addition, there are manual modes
which offer a finely-tuneable traditional
suspension set-up. The ERS system is
controlled by the SCU which can adjust
the front and rear suspension's com-
pression stroke and rebound stroke
damping forces independently. The au-
tomatic modes will adjust suspension
damping forces based on running con-
ditions.
