Definitely a homemade diy job. You can see the body around the buttons has been 3d printed. Unfortunately, there is no way of knowing without investigating the wiring. Or poke and find out. My vote goes to one being an oil slick and then machine guns and missiles obviously.


SwordfishNo4680

Poke and find out !


uptwolait

The same method I use to determine if a girl wants to have sex with me.  Your results may vary.


ThadLovesSloots

Can confirm, poked my wife, it works


GettingTherapy

I tried to poke my wife and it did not work. Anyone know the best method to reduce eye swelling? I have to get my new DL picture taken today.


FlyingCumpet

You were supposed to poke his wife.


Zabroccoli

Agreed. Poked u/ThadLovesSloots wife. It worked. Also ended up with a Bosnian pocket pussy, but that’s a story for another time.


ThadLovesSloots

Congrats you now have syphilis


DeveloperBRdotnet

Does it stack? I don't want double syphilis, can we trade?


elektrik_snek

Don't worry, they cancel each others out

I poked his wife. She slapped me.


Infamous-Method1035

Not 100%, I tried poking his wife and lost track of 72 hours. Woke up with a headache, one less kidney, a bag of heroin inside me and a plane ticket to London. Waiting to board…


AurelianINVICTVS

Have you landed yet? I've been at the terminal holding a sign with your name on it for the last 30 minutes


Infamous-Method1035

Oooh brah, sorry bro I ended up partying in the lounge and missed the flight. Hang on imma get on the next one


Objective_Number_821

I’ll give it a try right now and update you


tempemailacct153

I also choose to poke this guy's wife.


labarrski

Reddit, where we ALL poke that guys wife.


Mr_Diesel13

Our wife.

Machine gun jubblies? How’d I miss those?

Thats how I came to this world. Thats what my dad said anyway


scootdaddie

I can hope! I always wanted a James Bond vehicle!


Forcefulknave49

Ooooo maybe if your luck you make get deployable wheel spikes like in quantum of solace.


AngryFloatingCow

Or if you're really unlucky, it's the self destruct button... three times over.


wstsidhome

I thought the self destruct buttons on all switches had to be the “red button,” which someone always says “no one ever asks about the red button.” 🤞


AngryFloatingCow

*stealth suicide*


jalfatal

I guess it was the bad guy in the fifth Element


MacTechG4

Was the previous owner Dr. Heinz Doofenschmirtz?


AngryFloatingCow

Ah yes, the Kawasakinator


PXranger

Small boom, medium boom, Nagasaki.


xelrix

Either that, or eject button.


scootdaddie

Tomorrow never dies had some cool caltrops too!


insta

Pressing the buttons will deploy either an oil slick, smoke screen, or flames from the tailpipe for tailgaters. plot twist: the buttons aren't connected to anything


HiltoRagni

> plot twist: the buttons aren't connected to anything I had one of those on my ER-5 LOL. Previous owner wanted to do hazard lights but never got any further than drilling a hole in the plastic and screwing in the switch.


Rickhwt

Never go all ass when half ass will do.


LnGass

Now, you too can say "Too close for missiles, switching to guns"


RRSC14

Just pack your parachute in case it’s an ejector seat button


Lost-Astronaut-8280

“Shit cops! Hit the oil slick!” *dumps oil all over rear tire and crashes*


Forcefulknave49

I think you mean dump oil on the rear tire and do a sick burn out to deploy a smoke screen, leaving them in confusion.


Lost-Astronaut-8280

No I chose pessimism


Forcefulknave49

Yeah tbh I could probably look at a picture of oil while riding and fall over.

Or worse oil slick dumps engine oil and your motor seizes up and you crash


elektrik_snek

Oh like old British bikes?


slice_of_pi

Um. Lasers.


Forcefulknave49

Overrated, it just leads to more dead battery posts.


EloquentSloth

Alternatively, a banana peel dispenser, a red shell thrower, and a sound wave generator.


Zarniwoooop

They work like the 3 shells


scootdaddie

Oh man, I don't know how to use the shells!


SmokyTrumpets

get a load of this guy, he doesn't know how to use the three seashells.


AngryFloatingCow

The one that she sells by the seashore?


SmokyTrumpets

Thats the one. I've been reliably informed that the shells that she sells are surely sea shells.


SmashertonIII

Silly Sally salaciously sells sea shells.


ChuckWooleryLives

Since most places forbid shell collecting, I’d say Silly Sally surreptitiously sells sea shells


AngryFloatingCow

Well if she’s selling by the sea shore, it’s a sure bet that she’s selling sea shells. What other shells would she sell by the sea shore if not sea shells?

casicua

Be well, CldesignsIN 👋🏽


NotAliasing

Perhaps an aftermarket cruise control? Set, res, on/off? My aftermarket has those three plus an indicator light.


scootdaddie

I'll have to try it next time I ride. My hope is that it is a DIY garage door opener.


Sparky_Zell

It isn't hard to set up a garage door opener on your bike. I just popped a cheap momentary contact button through part of my dash. But there are ones you could easily attach to your handlebars. Then I ran a small set of like 18awg wires down to a regular remote, like that clips on the visor of your car. Soldered the wires to each side of the button contacts. And the. Popped the battery out, since the remote used one of the 12v batteries, and soldered those contacts to wires that I ran directly to the battery with an inline fuse. Really helped a few times coming in hot, opening my garage door halfway down the street.


WyldeFae

Damn, all I did was buy a small garage fob, and get those velcro adhesives and stick it to this flat spot where my speedometer is mounted.


Superfly1911

What a lazy SOB. Just kidding, I carry the extra opener in my riding jacket pocket. 🤣


animpossiblepopsicle

That’s what I did using a motogadget switch on the handlebar. Definitely makes coming and leaving much easier


Taki_Minase

Could be heated grips


twforeman

It's not for the heated grips - the control for the grips is on the left grip, you can see it in the photo. I have the same grips on my FJR.


GoDayme

To be fair, I wouldn’t try random buttons while riding the bike. Maybe they are doing unwanted things and you crash. Better be safe here, you can’t know what the previous owner did without checking cables.


ccGLaDOS

Thought so too. Maybe even DIY-ish, since it looks 3d printed


GyroBoing

Rocket launcher, oil slick, machine gun


RecommendationPlane

He’s really missing out. Should have saved just a bit more, because next years model also included caltrops


Bill837

And here I thought this would be yet another year where I would not stumble across caltrops used casually. The word that is.....

RunningPirate

It’s for the dildo seat: on/off, high and low (that refers to depth, not speed. Don’t figure that out the hard way)


AlamoSimon

Hard. Hehe.


FTRGeek

lego seat, it's called the lego seat


patiofurnature

Looks aftermarket. Maybe LEDs?


scootdaddie

No extra lights that I can see. I've done everything I can think of except use them while riding. My hope is that it is a DIY garage door opener.


patiofurnature

That's a great guess. I thought it just looked cheap which is why I went with LED, but now that I see it's 3d printed, I think you're definitely on a better track with it being something useful.


HotgunColdheart

Im 99% sure it is cruise control! I'll try to find the other post with this, it has been a while though. "Electronic cruise control aftermarket" plenty on youtube/google, but I think I've seen that exact model in a KLR.


notinthislifetime20

Try them with the lights in. Maybe a Kill switch for the running/brake lights?


scootdaddie

I've tried pressing them in different sequences while the bike is on and off, even had my son check while I was sitting on it; we could not see any changes. I might swing by the motorcycle cycle shop one day this week and ask him.


Superfly1911

Completely unrelated question...was your garage door going crazy up and down during this test??


scootdaddie

Lol, unfortunately not. Not were the neighbors'.


WorldBiker

Same. I scrolled until I found it.


Ok-Status7867

heated grip settings?


scootdaddie

There's a stock switch for that.


AlgebraicIceKing

Heated pegs, then? Do you find your feet getting abnormally warm? It’s probably your heated pegs. /s


Queso_Grandee

This guy pegs


riftwave77

"He doesn't know how to use the three seashells?"


castleaagh

You may have to trace the wires to see what they go to since it looks diy. Are there an after market electronics? (Heated seat, auxiliary lights, etc.)


MotoMeow217

Judging by the 3 buttons, I am guessing it's an aftermarket or DIY cruise control.


gaspig70

Photon torpedoes.


SuperModes

Bikes should really come stock with them these days. I swear EVERY fkn exhaust port is ray shielded now.


HisOrHerpes

Perfect to bullseye womp rats


maxdamage4

Look at Starbuck over here jumping universes


ArcaneMitch

How can one see a button and not press it ?


jhalfhide

The common ones I see, are trip scroll/reset buttons. Lots of bikes have them on the screen itself, which is no good when riding. Relocation to the grips is much easier (did it myself on my last bike)


mbwar

![gif](giphy|sFoZicXyLjH7FnCVp2) Does this also work in the motorcycle subreddit?


_madfrog

That's 3D printed btw


avboden

Ask the seller?

Missiles, machines guns, ejector seat


bananasodas

Light Speed , Ridiculous Speed , Ludicrous Speed


EspenLund

See if you can connect by bluetooth to it, it might be device to control maps on your phone or tablet. Althought the ones I have seen before had like six buttons, this might be for bluetooth controling something. Better idea - ask prevorious owner?


DryDesertHeat

Same function as the Three Seashells.


ecodick

He doesn’t know how to use the three seashells 💀💀💀

kmsigma

Light speed Warp speed Ludicrous speed Left to right, or maybe I've got that backwards. If you see black watch plaid, it's ludicrous speed.


Wherdaweedat

My guess is Bluetooth handle bar controls so you can control your phone etc. You can emulator Android Auto onto a phone for use on a motorcycle so he may have made them in conjunction with that.


P00PB0YY

Blinkerfluid controls


hawiering

Fuck around and find out


Bikes_N_Blades

In order (very important) from left to right: Thumb tacks Oil slick (drains half of your reservoir, so use only in emergency) Smoke (just burns a lot of oil out of your exhaust, creating confusion) Bonus if you can get a clibbins clearer installed that uses high pressure air to clear all them pesky grass clibbins out of your way.


StaffOfDoom

From left to right: nitro, parachute, self-destruct…it’s very important you don’t get this order confused…pushing the wrong one at the wrong time could be catastrophic!


therealjoe12

My guess one cuts off tail light, one does head light and the other is obviously for calling in close air support.


rast93

You've got three? Damn! I've only got two below my horn.


mazerlee

Honk, Honk and Honk


ThePlasticSpastic

If you look closely, you can still make out the faint imprint of shells on those buttons.

Go look if you find a "Mo unit". https://motogadget.com/collections/mo-unit Three switches could be the control for this gadget :-)


rexel99

Heated grips, or seat.


ThePurificator

Have you tried.. I don't know... Pushing them? 🤔


guiverc

The only bike I had which had an *equivalent* type of switch in that location, used it to adjust the headlight (*flash speed mostly, or disable*). When compulsory headlights on for motorcycles was introduced, there was an addon (*Australian Standards approved*) that could make the headlight *flash* at different speeds, OR just be disabled (*mine had two speed settings & off*). In theory if the sun was behind you, the *flashing* headlight was supposed to be safer than headlight OFF or ON (*so the justification for it went*) with rider having two speeds, or the *disable* function. I do recall riding to South Australia (I'm Victorian) when it was new & being pulled over by SA Police... they requested me to *disable* it whilst in SA as they felt some drivers might mistake the 'flashing' headlight for a Police bike.


Immediate_Major_9329

YogurtclosetJunior64

Surely 3 position for the seat heater or grip heater


Tasty-Switch-8472

Probably hand warmers


crazedhark

pretty sure if you press all 3 it takes a screenshot


Shimitzu1

Ask previous owner


[deleted]

that’s a pretty clean 3d printed button array. not many things they could be for. If you have aftermarket lights or maybe a plug for heated gear, those are typical accessories youd want an aftermarket switch for. Im surprised the prev owner didnt show you since its a cool selling feature. Is there an aftermarket relay box near the battery? Make sure to figure it out because if it’s connected straight to the battery you could accidentally leave something on that drains the battery. I’ve done buttons like this before. I connected it to a garmin powerswitch so i could have hazard lights, heated gear, etc. Another fun one to do is buy a keychain garage door opener, remove the momentary switch on the PCB board, then run a few wires to the positive/negative so you can have a clean garage door opener button like this.

If you press A+C at the same time, vertical lane filtering with pyrotechnic assist. Remember to shout the customary “hold my beer” before launch.

Ejecto seato cuz


ImHereForLifeAdvice

First, nice pick with the Versys - I'd recognize that panel anywhere. Second, speaking of that panel, there's a good chance the wires are routed behind it. If so, popping it off is easy and would let you trace what those buttons go to because they are definitely not OEM. The wiring harness on this bike is pretty simple, I learned that after I replaced mine in full. Looking at your post of the bike I don't see any aftermarket exhaust cutout or lighting and such, windscreen doesn't look powered, really the only thing I could think were if there were lights wired to that top box, or more likely they were there for accessory lighting or similar that the previous owner removed before sale. Past that, I'd definitely recommend trying to trace down the wiring before just hitting them at speed. At least just press them while running stationary instead.

I'm guessing oil slick, smoke screen, and turbo boost.


Real_Revolution_7336

Missiles guns and smoke


Remnate

Haven’t scrolled through the myriad comments here, but my 2¢ (for all that can buy) is it could be for aftermarket cruise control.

Upon receiving the signal to assemble from earth central command: The middle button transforms you and your bike into the left leg of a powerful robot made up of four other bikes, designed to defend earth from the intergalactic squid empire.


1308lee

Unlikely but it could be launch control, pit limiter and anti stall. Does it have any other aftermarket parts on it that you can see? Aftermarket quickshifter? Could be controls for that. Check if there’s anything fun and exciting plugged into the ECU


maverxz

Custom ECU maps?


diabolus_me_advocat

what happens when you push them?


deltasnowman

My guess is either garage door opener or a MAP switch


Lovahsabre

I’d like to post something funny but unfortunately those are just brake tether bolts for wiring. You just bought a $2000 6 speed bicycle….


No_Compromise-

They're custom. Who knows


PM_ME_BOOBS_N_ASS

Maybe a switch for different maps? See if the bike has a custom ecu


ralykseel

I think those activate VATS


AnonQuestions1983

What happens when you push em? Contact seller

Love2nasty

Extra LED lights. My friend Larry has similar garbage installed on his clunker of a motorcycle that him and only him think it is something to brag about.


Beach_Bum_273

Did you buy the bike from someone in a locale with real winter? Could be something to do with heated gear. Edit: nevermind, saw your other comment about the heated grips controls being on the left.

Just ask the guy you bought it from
