saw this in pic thread. whats the botton on handle bar that says "pass"
i've never seen this on my bike b4.

It flashes your high beam....

 

[crimelimezx6r]

not to thread jack, but what bikes have those? i just looked at mine and i dont have one. is it area specific?

 

[altec]

pretty much every GSXR, daytona 675, and I think some yami's. That pic could be from a 10r.

 

[DarkZXRider]

also how do we turn hazard light on? (both signals flashing)

 

[altec]

We don't have a hazard warning option. All you can really do is turn the key past the "on" switch which will turn on the rear tail to bright.

My 06 SV650S had that. As has been said it's a popular Suzuki feature.

Is that pic a UK-spec bike or something?

 

[Sev]

European spec bike...

US bikes do not get that.

kay thx guys. i figure basically this button would make headlight flash alternating left n right?
well thats useless for me so i'm no longer jelous of that nice button XD

 

[Dageorge]

No that isn't what it does. It just lights up your highbeam in addition to the lowbeam that is already one. At least that is what it did on my SV.

So if you really WANTED to do this you could just flip your headlight switch a couple times.

It's a useless feature in my opinion....just unnecessary. Suzuki seems to value it, just like Honda thinks gas gauges are a big deal. Who knows what Kawasaki UK is thinkin

no no, thats the NOS button for when you need to speed up to "pass" other vehicles...

True enough, which is unfortunate. We also don't get the immobilizer or the jumper mod (that the Malay-spec bikes get out of the factory).

Anybody know a non-US website that has a parts list / schematic with the Euro/Asia-spec'd parts?

 

[Pramslam]

it flashes the lights. In Europe its legal to flash to let people know they can pass. Here it is illegal, hence why the bikes here don't have it. Suzuki and some others don't want to bother making their models different so they leave it.

Not sure if the stock pass headlight flashing is different, but modular headlights are permitted in CA, NV, AZ.

i didnt know any ninja had a pass button at all.

 

[fallfornoone]

yea those come on the gsxr
my buddy has one and i told him thats his wheelie button
hahaha

 

[SushiMe]

You can acheive the same result, by flashing your highbeams once. I ride with highbeams on and have HIDs so useless.

 

[Shakinlaw]

YEAH, i saw that button just today at the dealer on a gsx-750. i was wondering what the heck that is??

 

[Nymphetamine]

strange about this differences about US and Europe versions , did anybody seen this in manual ? I have US version on zx-6r 07 and i have "pass" button.
