    Default Mystery Button?

    Hey Everyone,

    I'm loving my new RS-S and have a quick question that I hope you can help me with...

    On the front side of the right handlebar cluster, there is a button just like the Mode button on the left. This button is not labeled and I don't find it listed or described in the owners manual. Does anyone know where I can find this button in the documentation or what it is used for? My guess is that I've just missed it in the owners manual.

    Thanks for your help,

    Tim

    Turns on lights while held in, atleast on the GS it does
    I'd rather be on 3 wheels, but 18 pays the BILLs!

    Use it to light up your trunk when the lid is open.

    I had to run out to the garage and check it out - you're all right about the button on the right side.

    Discussion groups and forums can be really cool to belong to for great resources like this. I belong to Electronics and Powered Parachute groups too and it's the same solid, help each other out attitude in those circles also. What a good way to share information.

    Thanks for your help,

    Tim

    I think that's for the ejection seat.

    At least he'll have a parachute for the way down.

    Might be handy to have that as the horn button sometimes. How many times have you tried to honk with the turn indicator?

    Default Mystery Button

    Hey, don't feel bad. I had my RS for about 7 months trying to figure out what the identical button on the left handlebar with the "M" on it was for. My mechanic who used to work on my Harley and now helps me with my mods said if you have to push the button on the dash with the "M" on it and this button also has an "M" on it, could it be for the same function? DUH
