Thruxton Strange Rider Mode Behaviour

If sport turns off traction/abs etc, it'll revert back to the mode with them set to "on" as a safety measure so it'll not take the next rider "by surprise" as to get it back to sport, it's an option that the rider has to make after starting it.
Safety precaution (meant to be) but it's the same for my rs.
Nothing to be worried about.

 

My thruxton r does this as well, nothing wrong with your bike @learningtofly

 

You have clearly never read the manual for a 1970s Japanese bike!

 

It's a really annoying safety feature which in my case was a deal breaker I don't like or need to be told what to do

 

Deal breaker, thats a laugh. Reverting back to Road after shutting off is what it's designed to do. Big deal. I can name hundreds of more annoying daily things.

 

Your choice mate if I set something electronic that I paid more than 10 grand for to a setting I expect it to stay there its my choice and don't need some health and safety bullshit to do otherwise

 

There may be an ECU coding fix for your 1st world problem?

 

The dealer may not do it coz its a safety feature. You may have to ask someone who has mapped their ECU. ECU coding changes are common among the car crews for indicators speeds, door locking etc....

 

The rider mode on the Street Scrambler doesn't work in the same way that the manual suggests it works either.

If you follow the manual, it's not possible to select off-road mode
