Riding Precautions

Honda Selectable Torque Control

When the Honda Selectable Torque Control (Torque Control) detects rear wheel spin during acceleration, the system will limit the amount of torque applied to the rear wheel based on the Torque Control level selected.


Torque Control will allow some wheel spin during acceleration at the lower Torque Control setting levels. Select a level that is appropriate for your skill and riding conditions.


Torque Control does not work during deceleration and will not prevent the rear wheel from skidding due to engine braking. Do not close the throttle suddenly, especially when riding on slippery surfaces.


Torque Control may not compensate for rough track conditions or rapid throttle operation. Always consider track and weather conditions, as well as your skills and condition, when applying throttle.


Always use the recommended tyres and sprockets to ensure correct Torque Control operation.
