180 TECHNOLOGY IN DETAIL
Switchover
Riding modes can be changed
when the vehicle is at a stand-
still with the ignition switched
on. A changeover while riding
is possible under the following
conditions:
No drive torque at rear wheel.
No brake pressure in the
braking system.
For a changeover while riding,
the following steps must be
carried out:
Turn back throttle grip.
Do not actuate brake lever.
Deactivate the adaptive cruise
control.
First, the desired riding mode
is preselected. The switchover
does not take place until the
affected systems are in the re-
quired state.
The Selection menu does not
disappear from the display un-
til the riding mode has been
switched over.
ECO mode
The ShiftCam technology
bridges the gap between
maximum dynamics and
maximum efficiency. While
the full load cams make the
full valve stroke available for
maximum combustion chamber
filling and high power output,
the partial load cams open
the intake valves significantly
less and at different widths.
The gas exchange losses
are reduced by de-throttling,
friction is reduced, the mixture
is agitated more thoroughly
and burned more effectively,
and the fuel consumption
drops.
The ECO mode supports the
rider by means of the ECO in-
dicator and engine character-
istics (E-gas adjustment) in the
targeted operation of the com-
bustion engine within the oper-
ating range of the partial load
cam, which is the optimum
for consumption, and thus to
achieve a maximum range.
The fill level of the green bar
of the ECO indicator in the
TFT display visualizes whether
the drive is operating in the
consumption-optimized range
of the partial load cam and, if
so, at which distance to the
switching threshold. The length
of the bar here represents
the remaining load reserve to
the point of the switch to the
full load cam. The color turns
gray if the load requirement
increases and a switch to
the full load cam has taken
