Buttons, Levers, and Control: How Yamaha WSBK Keeps It Simple

Yamaha’s electronics and operating system are streamlined, with just a few buttons and levers. The interface is as simple as a stoplight, held together by titanium bolts.
The lower lever controls the rear brake.
The upper lever remains the clutch.
The wheel adjusts the front brake.
The black button serves as a mode selector—pressing it activates rider aides, including but not limited to traction control.
The green and red buttons fine-tune this function.
The black button also scrolls through other, non-traction-related adjustments.
