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