Feature Details Missing

[ghostwriter78]

I have checked out the manual and other online resources. So far i found how to turn things on/off but NOT what they do on which setting. is there anything out there, or can we add to this site a 'wiki' of how the bike works in reality, since Kawa hasnt bothered?

E.g. difference between KTRC mode 1 & 2. They are meant for dry roads but not explained what they do and how.
Mode 3 dials down power, e.g. ideal for wet conditions.

or, how to engage KLCM (launch control mode)

I don't know about internet source, but when you get the manual, it should explained all you need to know.
For KLCM, you need to be in Full Power mode, then you need to press and hold upper button and Mode button simultaneously til KLCM ON blinks 3 times. It'll show KLCM ON on your display. Just shift into 1st gear and you're set to go.
As for KTRC, higher the number, more assist you get from the computer for optimum traction. I always keep it at F1 xD

It may have some additional info in the workshop manual, but otherwise not sure they will publish all the details. If it's like the other Kawis, it's all about how much percentage the throttle opens and how aggressive the curve to activate TC is when detecting slip. For instance, past Kawis, F = 100% power, M = 100% power with greatly reduced throttle response, and L = Reduced throttle % and reduced throttle response, I believe on my 10R, it was down to 70% power. That was info gleamed from the manual on that bike though.

With IMUs, the formulas get a lot more complicated. It uses a lot more inputs to figure out what to do. I would love to read it though, definitely interested to see what you can find.

TC is your traction control it limits wheel spin and helps keep wheelies down.

KLCM is the launch control it allows you to hold the throttle wide open release the clutch rapidly and it has the bike accelerate at the fastest rate it can with the electronic aids. It limits rpms until you reach a certain speed to help prevent wheelspin.

Yes so far it was clear from Kawa promotional matieral but what is difference exactly details are interesting for understanding how the bike works and what it’s limits are.
