Hi all,

I bought a 2020 701sm.

(with the Traction Control on or off & in either mode)
The bike will not allow me to easily wheelie.
It feels like the power get chopped or cut whenever I get the bike "up" past a certain degree.
And
I have to fight to get the front wheel off the ground in the first place.
The quicker the wheel goes up..... the harder it cuts the power.
Sometimes flat out slamming the front wheel back down to the ground.

Can someone please tell me what Electronic Control may be causing this to happen?

Thank you
FT

To clarify, the lights have to be on to indicate they are disabled.
It should look like this. Is this what you are seeing?


To truly disable, start the bike and get rolling up to 5-10 mph. Stop and press TC for 3-5 seconds until it illuminates.
You should be good to go after that. I'm on a 22 SMCR but I believe it is the same process across the lineup.
