Might have been discussed but....the owner's manual says no switching modes or TCS when moving. I didn't relaize this until I got home after a hundred odd miles. When travelling at low speeds when not accelerating I could get the mode to change but no go on TCS unless at a dead stop. Is this everyone else's experience?

Hi,

The TCS can only be changed when the bike is completely stationary.

The mode can however be changed at any speed, as long as the throttle is comlpetely closed!!!

Thanks guys - makes sense. A separate switch location makes sense, too. I can live with the TCS button being where it is so there are no "accidents (read lawsuits)" for turning off traction control and crashing. It would be nice to more easily swap modes on the fly.
