Lean angle settings

Benny130 · Jun 30, 2015

What does everyone have the lean angle set to? The options I have are slow med fast off but not sure what this relates to??

as far as i'm aware, the settings relate to how quickly the lean angle reading on the dash returns to 0 degrees after a corner? I've set mine to slow but tbh it still returns to 0 before i get a chance to have a look once upright again! .....the temptation to have a quick look mid corner is strong but i've managed to fight it so far!

.....dashboard is the last place we should be looking mid-corner me thinks! :-/ ha

Agree, I might turn mine off altogether as there's a mighty temptation to check it while slinging the bike around. The tyre has a pretty good record of how far I've been over anyway... and it tends to record a score of "Try harder"

Can't be returning to zero when riding because it's still there when I finish as is the braking meter up to when I switch ign off which is a pain 'cos I keep forgetting to look and you can't recall it lol. Looking mid corner is NOT a very good idea.... :concern:

hey Bananaman...i think you're referring to the maximum lean angle readings (Left & Right) which as you correctly mention, stay on max lean readings until you reset ignition. If you look directly above those two readings on the dash you should see a "0" which shows the current lean angle....Its right at the top of the dash display and if you're tall like me (6ft+) it can actually be a bit difficult to see! I didn't notice it for first 1k miles! :-/ ha
