Frequently Asked Questions - Hypermotorad 1100S DUCATI

What type of engine oil does the Ducati Hypermotard 1100S require?

Use a high-quality synthetic oil with viscosity 10W-40 or 15W-50, meeting API SG or higher, and JASO MA/MA2 standard for wet clutches.

How often should I change the oil?

Ducati recommends an oil change every 6000 km (3750 miles) or annually, whichever comes first.

What is the correct tire pressure for the Hypermotard 1100S?

For solo riding: Front 33 psi (2.3 bar), Rear 36 psi (2.5 bar). For passenger or heavy loads, increase rear to 42 psi (2.9 bar). Always follow the owner's manual.

How do I adjust the suspension?

The front fork has preload, compression, and rebound adjustment knobs. The rear shock has preload, compression, and rebound screws. Refer to the manual for baseline settings and adjust based on riding style.

What type of fuel should I use?

Use premium unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 95 RON (91 AKI) or higher. Avoid ethanol blends above 10%.

Useful information for safe riding

Warning

Read this section before riding your motorcycle.

Accidents are frequently due to inexperience. Always make sure you have your licence with you when riding; you need a valid licence to be entitled to ride your motorcycle.

Do not lend your motorcycle to inexperienced riders or who do not hold a valid licence.

Both rider and pillion passenger must always wear a safety helmet.

Wear proper clothing, with no loose items or accessories that may become tangled in the controls or limit your zone of vision.

Never start or run the engine indoors. Exhaust gases are poisonous and may lead to loss of consciousness or even death within a short time.

Both rider and pillion passenger should keep their feet on the footpegs when the motorcycle is in motion.

Always hold the handlebars firmly with both hands so you will be ready for sudden changes of direction or in the road surface. The pillion passenger should always hold on to the sides of the seat rear end with both hands.

Ride within the law and observe national and local rules.

Always respect speed limits where these are posted.

However, always adjust your speed to the visibility, road and traffic conditions you are riding in.

Always signal your intention to turn or pull to the next lane in good time using the suitable turn indicators.

Be sure you are clearly visible and do not ride within the blind spot of vehicles ahead.

Be very careful when tackling road junctions, or when riding in the areas near exits from private grounds, car parks or on slip roads to access motorways.

Always turn off the engine when refuelling.

Be extremely careful not to spill fuel on the engine or on the exhaust pipe when refuelling.

Do not smoke when refuelling.

While refuelling, you may inhale noxious fuel vapours.

Should any fuel drops be spilled on your skin or clothing, immediately wash with soap and water and change your clothing.

Always remove the key when you leave your motorcycle unattended.

The engine, exhaust pipes, and mufflers stay hot for a long time.

Warning

The exhaust system might be hot, even after engine is switched off; pay particular attention not to touch exhaust system with any body part and do not park the vehicle next to inflammable material (wood, leaves etc.).

Park your motorcycle where no one is likely to hit it and use the side stand.

Never park on uneven or soft ground or your motorcycle may fall over.

Carrying the maximum load allowed

Your motorcycle is designed for long-distance riding, carrying the maximum load allowed in full safety.

Even weight distribution is critical to preserving these safety features and avoiding trouble when performing sudden manoeuvres or riding on bumpy roads.

Information about carrying capacity

The total weight of the motorcycle in running order including rider, pillion passenger, luggage and additional accessories should not exceed: 390 Kg.

Arrange your luggage or heavy accessories in the lowest possible position and close to motorcycle centre.

Be sure to secure the luggage to the supports provided on the motorcycle as firmly as possible. Improperly secured luggage may affect stability.

Never fix bulky or heavy objects to the handlebar or to the front mudguard as this would affect stability and cause danger.

Do not insert any objects you may need to carry into the gaps of the frame as these may foul moving parts.

Make sure the tyres are inflated to the proper pressure indicated at page 84 and that they are in good condition.

Identification data

All Ducati motorcycles have two identification numbers, for frame (fig. 1) and engine (fig. 2).

Headlight "smart" auto-off

This function allows you to reduce current consumption from the battery, by automatically managing headlight switching-off. The device is enabled in three instances:

• When the key is turned from OFF to ON and the engine is not started within 60 seconds, the headlight is turned off and will be turned back on next time you start the engine.
• When the vehicle has been running with the headlights on and the engine is stopped using the RUN-STOP button on the RH switch.

In this case, 60 seconds after stopping the engine, the headlight is turned off and will be turned back on next time you start the engine.

- While starting the engine.

The immobilizer system

For improved anti-theft protection, the motorcycle is equipped with an IMMOBILIZER, an electronic system that inhibits engine operation whenever the ignition switch is turned off.

Accommodated in the handgrip of each ignition key is an electronic device that modulates an output signal. This signal is generated by a special antenna incorporated in the switch when the ignition is turned on and changes every time. The modulated signal acts as a password and tells the CPU that an "authorised" ignition key is being used to start up the engine. When the CPU recognises the signal, it enables engine start-up.

Keys (fig. 21)

The Owner receives a set of keys comprising:

- 2 (BLACK) keys B

These keys contain the immobilizer system code.

Note

Your Ducati dealer might ask you to submit the Code

Card for some service operations.

The black keys (B) are regular ignition keys and are used to:

- start up the engine

- open the lock of the fuel tank filler plug

- open the seat lock.

Note

The two keys have a small plate (1) attached that reports their identification number.

Warning

Keep the keys in different places. Store the plate (1) in a safe place.

It is advisable to always use the same black key to start the engine.

The CODE CARD (fig. 22) supplied with the keys reports an electronic code (A, fig. 23) to start the engine in the event it fails to start after key-ON because the immobilizer system inhibited the ignition.

Warning

Keep the CODE CARD in a safe place. However, it is advisable to keep the electronic code printed on the CODE CARD handy when you ride your motorcycle, in case it is necessary to enable the engine through the procedure described below. This procedure lets you disable the "engine block" function - indicated by the amber EOBD light (8, fig. 4) coming on - in the event of problems with the immobilizer system.

But this operation can be carried out only if the electronic code indicated on the code card is known.

Warning

Your Dealer will ask you to submit your Code Card to reprogram a key or when you need a replacement key.

Immobilizer override procedure

In the event of an "Immobilizer BLOCK", you will have to enter the 5-digit electronic card reported on the Code Card before you can perform the "Immobilizer override procedure" from the instrument panel; enter the corresponding function as described below:

Enter the menu and go to page "cod".

Note

This menu is only active when at least one Immobilizer error is present.

This page menu shows a default "00000" code; press button (1, fig. 8) in position B "▼" for 3 seconds to access the electronic code entry procedure.

Entering the code:

when you access this function, the first digit on the left will flash.

Button (1, fig. 8):

each time you press the button in position B "▼", the digit will increase by one unit per second;

if you press the button in position A "▲", you will move to the second digit, which will start to flash. Each time you press the button in position B "▼", the digit will increase by one unit per second;

If you press the button in position A "▲", you will move to the third digit, which will start to flash. Each time you press the button in position B "▼", the digit will increase by one unit per second;

if you press the button in position A "▲", you will move to the fourth digit, which will start to flash. Each time you press the button in position B "▼", the digit will increase by one unit per second;

if you press the button in position A "▲", you will move to the fifth digit, which will start to flash. Each time you press the button in position B "▼", the digit will increase by one unit per second;

press the button in position "▲" to confirm the code.

If the code has been entered correctly, the word "cod" and the code you just entered will flash for 4 seconds; the Diagnostic light (EOBD) (8, fig. 4) goes out; the instrument automatically exits the menu and the engine start-up inhibition is temporarily overridden.

If the error is still present at the next Key-On, the instrument panel error and the inhibited status will persist.

If the code is not entered correctly, the instrument panel reverts to the "cod" menu and the default "00000" code.

Operation

When the ignition key is turned to OFF, the immobilizer inhibits engine operation. When the ignition key is turned back to ON to start the engine, the following happens:

1) if the code is recognised, the immobilizer enables engine ignition. Press the START button (2, fig. 28), to start the engine;
2) if the diagnostic light (8, fig. 4) comes on and the page with the message "Error IMMO" is displayed when you press button (1, fig. 8) in position "▼", it means that the code was not recognised. When this is the case, turn the ignition key back to OFF and then to ON again. If the engine still does not start, try with another black key. If the other key does not work out either, contact the DUCATI Service network.

Warning

The keys accommodate electronic components inside.

If dropped or hit, they might damage.

Use only one key during the procedure. Failure to do so might prevent the system from recognising the code of the key in use.

Duplicate keys

If you need any duplicate keys, contact the DUCATI Service network with all the keys you have left and your CODE CARD.

DUCATI Service will program new keys and re-program your original keys.

You may be asked to identify yourself as the legitimate owner of the motorcycle. Be sure you have any documents you might need to this end ready.

The codes of any keys not submitted will be wiped off from the memory to make those keys unserviceable in case they have been lost.

Note

If you sell your motorcycle, do not forget to give all

keys and the CODE CARD to the new owner.

Side stand (fig. 39)

Important Before lowering the side stand, make sure that the bearing surface is hard and flat. Do not park on soft or pebbled ground or on asphalt melt by the sun heat and similar or the motorcycle may fall over. When parking in downhill road tracts, always park the motorcycle with its rear wheel facing downhill.

To pull down the side stand, hold the motorcycle handlebars with both hands and push down on the thrust arm (1) with your foot until stand is fully extended. Lean the motorcycle to the left until the stand contacts the ground.

Warning Do not sit on the motorcycle when it is supported on the side stand.

To move the side stand to its rest position (horizontal position), lean the motorcycle to the right while lifting the thrust arm (1) with your foot.

Note Check the correct operation of the two return springs of the stand - one spring is placed inside the other - and of the stand sensor (2) that signals stand position to the Engine Control Unit. This system is protected by a 3A fuse placed at the side of the battery (see page 103).

Note It is possible to start the engine with the side stand down and the gearbox in neutral. When starting the bike with a gear engaged, pull the clutch lever (in this case the side stand must be up).

Front fork adjusters

The front fork used on this motorcycle has rebound, compression and spring preload adjustment.

This adjustment is done using the outer adjusters:

1) to adjust rebound damping (fig. 40 and fig. 41);

2) to adjust spring preload (fig. 40 and fig. 41);

3) to adjust compression damping (fig. 42).

Place the motorcycle on the side stand and ensure it is stable.

Turn the adjuster (1) at the top end of each fork leg with a flat screwdriver to adjust rebound damping.

Turn the adjuster (3, fig. 42) at the rear end of the wheel shaft pinch bolts with a flat screwdriver to adjust compression damping.

As you turn the adjusters (1 and 3), you will hear them click. Each click identifies a setting.

Tighten the adjuster fully to achieve the hardest damping.

This will be your starting point. Now turn the adjuster counter clockwise and listen for the clicks that identify setting positions no. 1, 2 and so on.

STANDARD factory setting is as follows:

1100S

compression: 1.5 turns ± 1/4 of a turn;

rebound: 1.5 turns ± 1/4 of a turn.

Spring preload: 10 mm (fully loosened and then 3 turns).

To change the preload of the spring inside each fork leg, turn the hex. adjuster (2, fig. 40) with a 22-mm hexagon wrench. 1100

compression: 1.5 turns ± 1/4 of a turn;

rebound: 1.5 turns ± 1/4 of a turn;

Spring preload: (A, fig. 41): 10 mm (fully loosened and then 3 turns).

To change the preload of the spring inside each fork leg, turn the hex. adjuster (2, fig. 41) with a 22-mm hexagon wrench.

Technical line drawing of a car brake system with labeled components (no text or symbols beyond label)

Important

Adjust both fork legs to same settings.

Rear shock absorber adjusters (fig. 43 and fig. 44)

The rear shock absorber has outer adjusters that enable you to adjust your motorcycle to the load.

The adjuster (1) on the right side of the connection holding the shock absorber to the swinging arm controls rebound damping.

The adjuster (2) on the shock absorber expansion reservoir controls compression damping.

Turning the adjusters (1) and (2) clockwise gives harder damping, turning counter clockwise gives softer damping.

1100S

STANDARD setting. Turn the adjusters all the way in (clockwise) then:

- loosen adjuster (1) by 15 clicks.

- loosen adjuster (2) by 7 clicks.

Spring preload: 19 mm

1100

Warning

Never push on the mirror centrally to adjust its position or it might break off.

Changing motorcycle track alignment (1100S)

Motorcycle track alignment is the result of tests carried out under different riding conditions by our technical staff.

Modifying factory setting is a very delicate operation, which may lead to serious damages if carried out by unskilled people.

Before changing standard setting, measure the reference value (H, fig. 46).

The rider can modify track alignment according to his/her needs by changing the working position of the shock absorber (fig. 47).

Loosen the nuts (3) of the ball joints (1) and apply a wrench to the flats (A) to increase or decrease centre distance of linkage (2).

When finished, tighten the nuts (3) to 25 Nm.

Note

Please note that the lower nut (3) has a left-hand

thread.

Warning

Length of linkage (2), included between the two joint

centre lines (1), should not exceed 255.5 mm.

UNIBALL articulated head (A) maximum extension is 5 threadings, i.e. 7.5 mm (B).

Directions for use

Running-in recommendations

Maximum rpm (fig. 49)

Rotation speed for running-in period and during standard use (rpm):

1) up to 1000 km;
2) from 1000 to 2500 km.

Up to 1000 km

During the first 1000 km, keep an eye on the revolution meter. The indicator must not exceed: 5500-6000 rpm.

During the first hours of riding, it is advisable to run the engine at varying load and rpm, though still within recommended limit.

To this end, roads with plenty of bends and even hilly areas are ideal for a most efficient running-in of engine, brakes and suspensions.

For the first 100 km, use the brakes gently. Do not brake violently or keep brake applied for too long. This will enable a correct break-in of friction material on brake pads against brake discs.

For all mechanical moving parts to adapt to one another and above all not to adversely affect the life of basic engine parts, it is advisable to avoid harsh accelerations and not to run the engine at high rpm for too long, especially uphill.

Furthermore, the drive chain should be inspected frequently. Lubricate as required.

From 1000 to 2500 km

At this point, you can squeeze some more power out of your engine. However never exceed 7000 rpm.

Important

During the whole running-in period, the maintenance and service rules recommended in the Warranty Card should be observed carefully. Failure to comply with these rules will release Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A. from any liability whatsoever for resulting engine damage or shorter engine life.

Strict observance of running-in recommendations will ensure longer engine life and reduce the likelihood of overhauls and tune-ups.

Pre-ride checks

Warning

Failure to carry out these checks before riding, may

lead to motorcycle damage and injury to rider and passenger.

Before riding, perform a thorough check-up on your bike as follows:

Fuel level in the tank

Check fuel level in the tank. Fill tank if needed (page 66).

Engine oil level

Check oil level in the sump through the sight glass. Top up if needed (page 86).

Brake and clutch fluid

Check fluid level in the relevant reservoirs (page 70).

Tyre condition

Check tyre pressure and condition (page 84).

Controls

Work the brake, clutch, throttle and gear change controls (levers, pedals and twistgrips) and check for proper operation.

Lights and indicators

Make sure lights, indicators and horn work properly. Replace any burnt-out bulbs (page 78).

Key-operated locks

Ensure that fuel filler plug (page 49) and passenger seat (page 50) are firmly secured.

Stand

Make sure side stand operates smoothly and is in the correct position (page 52).

Warning

In case of malfunction, do not ride the motorcycle and contact a DUCATI Dealer or Authorised Workshop.

Starting the engine

Warning Before starting the engine, become familiar with the controls you will need to use when riding (see page 11).

1) Move the ignition key to ON (fig. 50). Make sure the green light N (8, fig. 4) and the red light 📋 (7, fig. 4) on the instrument panel are on.

Important The oil pressure light should go out a few seconds after the engine has started (page 12).

Note The engine can be started with the side stand down and the gearbox in neutral, or with a gear engaged and the clutch lever pulled (in this case the side stand must be up).

2) Check that the stop switch (1, fig. 51) is positioned to

○ (RUN), then press the starter button (2).

This model is equipped with a servoignition system.

To achieve assisted engine starting, press the button (2) and release it immediately.

Pressing the button (2) operates automatic engine starting for a maximum period of time that varies depending on engine temperature.

When the engine has started, the system prevents the starter motor from turning over.

If the engine fails to start, allow at least 2 seconds before pressing the starter button (2) again.

Let the engine start without using the throttle control.

Note

If the battery is flat, the system will automatically

inhibit engine cranking (starter motor).

Important

Do not rev up the engine when it is cold. Allow some

time for oil to reach all points that need lubricating.

Moving off

1) Disengage the clutch squeezing the control lever.
2) Push down on gear change lever sharply with the tip of your foot to engage the first gear.
3) Speed up engine, by turning the throttle twistgrip and slightly releasing the clutch lever at the same time; the motorcycle will start moving off.
4) Let go of clutch lever and speed up.
5) To shift up, close the throttle to slow down engine, disengage the clutch, lift the gear change lever and let go of clutch lever.
To shift down, release the twistgrip, pull the clutch control lever, shortly speed up to help gears synchronise, shift down (engage next lower gear) and release the clutch.
The controls should be used correctly and timely: when riding uphill do not hesitate to shift down as soon as the motorcycle tends to slow down, so you will avoid stressing the engine and the motorcycle abnormally.

Important

Avoid harsh accelerations, as this may lead to misfiring and transmission snatching. The clutch lever should not be pulled longer than necessary after gear is engaged, or friction parts may overheat and wear out.

Braking

Slow down in time, shift down to engine-brake first and then brake applying both brakes. Pull the clutch lever before stopping the motorcycle, to avoid sudden engine stop.

Warning Use both bra

Using only one of the brakes will give you less braking power.

Never use brake controls harshly or violently or you may lock the wheels and lose control of the motorcycle.

When riding in the rain or on slippery surfaces, braking will become less effective. Always use the brakes very gently and carefully when riding under these conditions. Any sudden manoeuvres may lead to loss of control. When tackling long, high-gradient downhill road tracts, shift down gears to use engine braking. Apply one brake at a time and use brakes sparingly. Keeping the brakes applied all the time would cause the friction material to overheat and reduce braking power dangerously. Underinflated or overinflated tyres reduce braking efficiency, handling accuracy and stability in a bend.

Stopping the motorcycle

If you let go of the throttle twistgrip, the motorcycle will slow down gradually and smoothly. Then, shift down releasing the clutch, and finally change from first to neutral. Apply brakes and you will bring the motorcycle to a complete stop. To switch the engine off, simply turn the key to OFF (page 40).

Parking

Stop the motorcycle, then put it on the side stand (see page 52).

Turn the handlebar fully left and block it by pushing in the ignition key and turning it to the LOCK position.

If you park in a garage or other facilities, make sure that there is proper ventilation and that the motorcycle is not near a source of heat.

You may leave the parking lights on by turning the key to position P.

Important

Do not leave the key turned to P for long periods or the battery will run down. Never leave the ignition key in the switch when you are leaving your bike unattended.

Warning The exhaust

The exhaust system might be hot, even after engine is switched off; pay particular attention not to touch exhaust system with any body part and do not park the vehicle next to inflammable material (wood, leaves etc.).

Warning

Using padlocks or other locks designed to prevent motorcycle motion, such as brake disc locks, rear sprocket locks, and so on is dangerous and may impair motorcycle operation and affect the safety of rider and passenger.

Refuelling (fig. 50)

Never overfill the tank when refuelling. Fuel should never be touching the rim of filler recess.

Warning

Use low-lead fuel with 95 octane rating at origin minimum (see "Top-ups" table, page 95).

Be sure there is no fuel trapped in the filler recess.

Tool kit and accessories (fig. 51)

The compartment in the left fairing can be accessed after opening the inner door (see page 51) and contains: the tool kit, which includes :

• Box wrench for spark plugs.
• Tommy bar for plug wrench;

Main maintenance operations

Removing the fairing

Some servicing operations need the motorcycle fairing to be removed.

Warning

Failure to refit or correctly install any one of the parts you have removed may result in one or more components coming off unexpectedly while riding, leading to loss of control.

Important

At reassembly always fit nylon washers when tightening fastening screws to avoid damage to painted parts and Plexiglas windscreen of headlight fairing.

Right side body panel

Lift the seat (page 50)

Unscrew the three screws (1) securing the baffle (2).

Remove the baffle (2).

Unscrew the three screws (3) and remove the side body panel (4).

Checking brake and clutch fluid level

Fluid level should never fall below the MIN mark on each reservoir (fig. 56 and fig. 57).

If level drops below the limit, air might get into the circuit and affect the operation of the system involved.

Brake and clutch fluid must be topped up and changed at the intervals specified in the scheduled maintenance chart reported in the Warranty Card; please contact a Ducati Dealer or Authorised Workshop.

Important

It is recommended all brake and clutch lines be

changed every four years.

Brake system

If you find exceeding play on brake lever or pedal and brake pads are still in good condition, contact your Ducati Dealer or an Authorised Workshop to have the system inspected and any air drained out of the circuit.

Warning

Brake and clutch fluid will damage paintwork and

plastic parts if accidentally spilled. Hydraulic oil is corrosive; it may cause damage and lead to severe injuries. Never mix different quality oils.

Check seals for proper sealing.

Clutch system (fig. 57)

If the control lever has exceeding play and the transmission snatches or jams as you try to engage a gear, it means that there might be air in the circuit. Contact your Ducati Dealer or Authorised Workshop to have the system inspected and air drained out.

Warning

Clutch fluid level will increase as clutch plate friction material wears down. Do not exceed specified level (3 mm above minimum level).

Checking brake pads for wear (fig. 58)

Front brake pads have a wear mark to facilitate inspection without removing the pads from the callipers. If the grooves in the friction material are still visible, the pad is still in good condition.

The rear brake pads must be replaced when friction material is worn down to about 1 mm (fig. 59); check through the inspection hole in the callipers.

Important Have the brake pads replaced at a Ducati Dealer or Authorised Workshop.

Mechanical assembly diagram showing a chain and gear mechanism with a 1 mm scale indicator (no text or symbols present)

Lubricating joints

Check the outer sheath of the throttle control cables for damage at regular intervals. The outer plastic cover should not be flattened or cracked. Work the controls to make sure the cables slide smoothly inside the sheaths: if you feel any friction or jamming, have the cable replaced by a Ducati Dealer or Authorised Workshop.

To avoid this kind of problem, unscrew the two retaining screws (1, fig. 60) to open the case and then grease cable ends and pulley with SHELL Advance Grease or Retinax LX2 grease.

Warning

Close the case carefully after threading the cables onto the pulley.

Refit the cover and tighten the screws (1) to 6 Nm.

To ensure smooth operation of side stand joint, clean off any dirt and apply SHELL Alvania R3 grease at all points exposed to friction (1, fig. 61).

Important

Make sure the charger is off when you connect the

battery to it, or you might get sparks at the battery terminals that could ignite the gases inside the cells.

Always connect the red positive (+) terminal first.

Refit the battery into its mount and secure to the brackets with the screws (1); apply some grease to the retaining screws to improve conductive capacity and connect the terminals.

Warning

Keep the battery out of the reach of children.

Charge the battery at 0.9 A for 5-10 hours.

Checking drive chain tension (fig. 65)

Wheel the motorcycle back and forth until finding the position at which the chain is tightest.

Place the motorcycle on the side stand.

Place the rule in front of the chain guard, push down on the chain and release it.

Tension up until the distance between the aluminium section of the swinging arm and chain pin centre is 30 ÷ 33 mm.

Important

Have chain tension adjusted by a Ducati Dealer or

Authorised Workshop.

Warning

Correct tightening of swinging arm screws (1, fig. 66)

is critical to rider and passenger safety.

Important

Improper chain tension will lead to early wear of

transmission parts.

Chain lubrication

The chain fitted on your motorcycle has O-rings that keep dirt out of and lubricant inside the sliding parts.

The seals might be irreparably damaged if the chain is cleaned using any solvent other than those specific for O-ring chains or washed using steam or water cleaners.

After cleaning, blow the chain dry or dry it using absorbent material and apply SHELL Advance Chain or Advance Teflon Chain on each link.

Important

Using non-specific lubricants may damage chain, front

and rear sprocket.

Replacing the headlight bulbs

Before replacing a burnt-out bulb, make sure that the new one complies with voltage and wattage as specified in the section covering the Electric System for that lighting device (page 102). Always test the new lamp before refitting the parts you have removed.

Unscrew the screws (1) with an Allen wrench.

Ease off the headlight support towards the front until releasing the handgrip (2).

Unscrew the handgrip (2) turning counter clockwise.

E

Release the clip (3).

The bulb (4) has a bayonet base: press and twist counter clockwise to remove. Fit the spare bulb by pressing and turning clockwise until it clicks.

Note

Be careful to hold the new bulb at the base only. Never touch the transparent body with your fingers or it will blacken resulting in reduced bulb brilliancy.

Replacing the rear turn indicator bulbs

To change the rear turn indicator bulbs, loosen the screw (1) and remove the cup (2).

Replacing the number plate light bulbs Remove the grommet (1) and extract the bulb.

Beam setting (fig. 73)

When checking beam setting, put the motorcycle upright. Tyres should be inflated at the correct pressure and one person should be sitting astride the motorcycle, keeping it at right angles to its longitudinal axis. Place the motorcycle opposite a wall or a screen, 10 meters apart from it, then draw a horizontal line dictated by headlamp centre and a vertical one in line with the longitudinal axis of motorcycle. If possible, perform this check in dim light.

Switch on the low beam.

The height of the light spot (measured at the upper limit between dark and lighted-up area) should not exceed 9/10th of the height from ground of headlamp centre.

Note

The procedure described here is in compliance with the "Italian Standard" establishing the maximum height of the light beam.

Owners in other countries will adapt said procedure to the provisions in force in their countries.

Beam adjustment (fig. 74)

Turn the screw (1) to set beam height.

The side position of the headlamp is adjusted using the screw (2).

Note

Remove the lower headlight fairing to give access to the headlamp adjusting screws.

Important

The adjusting screws (1) and (2) have no end stop.

Tubeless tyres

Front tyre pressure:

2.2 bar

Rear tyre pressure:

2.2 bar

Note

To ride with a passenger, increase rear tyre pressure to 2.4 bar.

As tyre pressure is affected by temperature and altitude variations, you are advised to check and adjust it whenever you are riding in areas where ample variations in temperature or altitude occur.

Important

Check and set tyre pressure when tyres are cold.

To avoid front wheel rim distortion, when riding on bumpy roads, increase front tyre pressure by 0.2 - 0.3 bar.

Tyre repair or change (Tubeless tyres)

In the event of a tiny puncture, tubeless tyres will take a long time to deflate, as they tend to keep air inside. If you find low pressure on one tyre, check the tyre for punctures.

Warning

A tyre must be replaced when punctured.

Only fit tyres of the same type as original-equipment tyres. Be sure to tighten the valve caps securely to avoid leaks when riding. Never use tube type tyres. Failure to heed this warning may lead to sudden tyre bursting and to serious danger to rider and passenger.

After replacing a tyre, the wheel must be balanced.

Important

Do not remove or shift the wheel balancing weights.

Note

If tyres need replacing, contact a Ducati Dealer or

Authorised Workshop to make sure wheels are removed and refitted correctly.

Minimum tread depth

Measure tread depth (S, fig. 75) at the point where tread is most worn down.

It should not be less than 2 mm and anyway not below the legal limit.

Important

Visually inspect the tyres at regular intervals for cracks and cuts, especially on the side walls, bulges or large spots that are indicative of internal damage. Replace them if badly damaged.

Remove any stones or other foreign bodies caught in the tread.

Checking engine oil level (fig. 76)

Engine oil level can be checked through the sight window (1) on the clutch cover on the RH side of the engine. Oil level must be checked with the motorcycle perfectly upright and the engine cold. Oil level should be between the marks near the sight glass. Top up oil level with SHELL Advance Ultra 4, if low. Undo the filler plug (2) and top up to correct level. Refit the plug.

Important

Engine oil and oil filters must be changed by a Ducati dealer or Authorised Workshop at the intervals specified in the scheduled maintenance chart reported in the Warranty Card.

Viscosity

SAE 10W-40

The other viscosity degrees indicated in the table can be used if the local average temperature is within the limits specified for that oil viscosity.

Cleaning and replacing the spark plugs (fig. 77)

Spark plugs are essential to smooth engine running and should be checked at regular intervals.

This operation also provides an indication of engine condition.

Have the spark plugs checked and replaced (as required) by a Ducati Dealer or Authorised Workshop, who will check the colour of the ceramic insulator of the centre electrode; a uniform light brown colour indicates good engine condition.

They will also inspect the centre electrode for wear and check spark plug gap, which should be: 0.6-0.7 mm.

Important

If gap is too wide or too close, engine performance will be affected. This could also cause misfiring or irregular idling.

Cleaning the motorcycle

To preserve the finish of metal parts and paintwork, wash and clean your motorcycle at regular intervals, anyway according to the road conditions you ride in. Use specific products only. Prefer biodegradable products. Avoid aggressive detergents or solvents.

Important

Do not wash your motorcycle right after use. When the motorcycle is still hot, water drops will evaporate faster and spot hot surfaces. Never clean the motorcycle using hot or high-pressure water jets. Cleaning the motorcycle with water cleaners may lead to seizure or severe failure of front fork, wheel hub assembly, electric system, front fork seals, air inlets or exhaust silencers and adversely affect the operation of motorcycle safety features.

Clean off stubborn dirt or exceeding grease from engine parts using a degreasing agent. Be sure to avoid contact with drive parts (chain, sprockets, etc.). Rinse with warm water and dry all surfaces with chamois leather.

Warning Braking perf

Braking performance may be impaired immediately after washing the motorcycle. Never grease or lubricate the brake discs. Loss of braking and further accidents may occur. Clean the discs with an oil-free solvent.

Storing the bike away

If the motorcycle is to be left unridden over long periods, it is advisable to carry out the following operations before storing it away:

clean the motorcycle;

empty the fuel tank;

pour a few drops of engine oil into the cylinders through the spark plug seats, then crank the engine by hand a few times so a protective film of oil will spread on cylinder inner walls; place the motorcycle on a service stand;

remove the battery and keep it well charged and efficient. Battery should be checked and charged (or replaced, as required) whenever the motorcycle has been left unridden for over a month.

Cover the motorcycle with the special cover available from Ducati Performance that will protect paint finish and let moisture out.

Important notes

Some countries, such as France, Germany, Great Britain, Switzerland, etc. have compulsory emission and noise standards that include mandatory inspections at regular intervals.

It is the Owner's responsibility to have any parts not in compliance with the standards in force in his/her country replaced with spare parts complying with local law.

Important only for Australia

Tampering with noise control system is prohibited.

Owners are warned that the law may prohibit:

(a) The removal or rendering inoperative by any person other than for purposes of maintenance, repair or replacement, of any device or element of design incorporated into any new vehicle for the purpose of noise control prior to its sale or delivery to the ultimate purchaser or while it is in use; and (b) the use of the vehicle after such device or element of design has been removed or rendered inoperative by any person.

Reporting of safety defects

If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or could cause injury or death, you should immediately inform the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying Ducati North America. If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation, and if it finds that a safety defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy campaign. However, NHTSA cannot become involved in individual problems between you, your dealer, or Ducati North America. To contact NHTSA, you may either call the Auto Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-800-424-9393 (or 366-0123 in Washington, D.C. area) or write to: NHTSA, U.S. Department of Transportation, Washington, D.C. 20590. You can also obtain other information about motor vehicle safety from the Hotline.

Safety warnings

Traffic Rules vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Know the regulations in your jurisdiction before riding this motorcycle.

Warning

This motorcycle is designed and intended for use on streets and other smooth, paved areas only. Do not use this motorcycle on unpaved surfaces. Such use could lead to upset or other accident.

Noise emission warranty

Ducati Motor S.p.A. warrants that this exhaust system, at the time of sale, meets all applicable U.S. EPA Federal noise standards. This warranty extends to the first person who buys this exhaust system for purposes other than resale, and to all subsequent buyers. Warranty claims should be directed to: Ducati North America, Inc., 10443 Bandley Drive, Cupertino, California, 95014 Tel: [phone] - Fax: [phone]

Noise and exhaust emission control system information

Source of Emissions

The combustion process produces carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons. Control of hydrocarbons is very important because under certain conditions, they react to form photochemical smog when subjected to sunlight. Carbon monoxide does not react in the same way, but is toxic. Ducati utilizes lean carburetor settings and other systems to reduce carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons.

Exhaust Emission Control System

The Exhaust Emission Control System is composed of lean carburetor settings, and no adjustments should be made except idle speed adjustments with the throttle stop screw. The Exhaust Emission Control System is separate from the crankcase emission control system.

Crankcase Emission Control System

The engine is equipped with a closed crankcase system to prevent discharging crankcase emissions into the atmosphere. Blow-by gas is returned to the combustion chamber through the air cleaner and the throttle body. Evaporative Emission Control System California motorcycles are equipped with an evaporative emission control system which consists of a charcoal canister and associated piping. This system prevents the escape of fuel vapors from the throttle body and fuel tank.

Tampering warning

Tampering with Noise Control System Prohibited. Federal Law prohibits the following acts or causing thereof: (1) the removal or rendering inoperative by any person, other than for purposes of maintenance, repair, or replacement, of any device or element of design incorporated into any new vehicle for the purpose of noise control prior to its sale or delivery to the ultimate purchaser or while it is in use; or (2) the use of the vehicle after such device or element of design has been removed or rendered inoperative by any person.

Among those acts presumed to constitute tampering are the acts listed below:

(1) Removal of, or puncturing the muffler, baffles, header pipes or any other component which conducts exhaust gases.
(2) Removal or puncturing of any part of the intake system.
(3) Lack of proper maintenance.
(4) Replacing any moving part of the vehicle, or parts of the exhaust or intake system, with parts other than those specified by the manufacturer.
This product should be checked for repair or replacement if the motorcycle noise has increased significantly through use. Otherwise, the owner may become subject to penalties under state and local ordinances.

Problems that may affect motorcycle emissions

If you are aware of any of the following symptoms, have the vehicle inspected and repaired by your local Ducati dealer. Symptoms:

Hard starting or stalling after starting.

Rough idle.

Misfiring or backfiring during acceleration.

After-burning (backfiring).

Poor performance (driveability) and poor economy.

Riding safety

The points given below are applicable for every day motorcycle use and should be carefully observed for safe and effective vehicle operation.

A motorcycle does not provide the impact protection of an automobile, so defensive riding in addition to wearing protective apparel is extremely important.

Do not let protective apparel give you a false sense of security.

Before changing lanes, look over your shoulder to make sure the way is clear. Do not rely solely on the rear view mirror; you may misjudge a vehicle's distance and speed, or you may not see it at all.

When going up steep slopes, shift to a lower gear so that there is plenty of power to spare rather than overloading the engine.

When applying the brakes, use both the front and rear brakes. Applying only one brake for sudden braking may cause the motorcycle to skid and lose control.

When going down long slopes, control vehicle speed by closing the throttle. Use the front and rear brakes for auxiliary braking.

Riding at the proper rate of speed and avoiding unnecessarily fast acceleration are important not only for safety and low fuel consumption but also for long vehicle life and quieter operation.

When riding in wet conditions or on loose roadway surfaces, the ability to maneuver will be reduced. All of your actions should be smooth under these conditions. Sudden acceleration, braking or turning may cause loss of control. When the roadway is wet, rely more on the throttle to control vehicle speed and less on the front and rear brakes.

The throttle should also be used judiciously to avoid skidding the rear wheel from too rapid acceleration or deceleration.

On rough roads, exercise caution, slow down, and grip the fuel tank with your knees for better stability.

When quick acceleration is necessary as in passing, shift to a lower gear to obtain the necessary power.

Do not down shift at too high an r.p.m. to avoid damage to the engine from overreving.

Avoiding unnecessary weaving is important to the safety of both the rider and other motorists.

Do not exceed the legal speed limit or drive too fast for existing conditions. High speed increases the influence of any condition affecting stability and the loss of control.

Operate motorcycle only at moderate speed and out of traffic until you have become thoroughly familiar with its operation and handling characteristics under all conditions. This is a very high performance motorcycle, designed and intended for use by experienced careful riders only!

A new motorcycle must be operated according to a special break-in procedure (see Running in recommendations).

Warning

Before starting engine, check for proper operation of brake, clutch, shifter, throttle controls, correct fuel and oil supply.

Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions. Refuell in a well ventilated area with the engine stopped. Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks when refuelling or servicing the fuel system. Always

close the fuel petcock when the engine is not running to prevent flooding of the throttle body. Do not overfill fuel tank (see instructions page 54).

Motorcycle exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas. Do not inhale exhaust gases and never run the engine in a closed garage or confined area.

Use only Ducati approved parts and accessories.

This motorcycle was not intended to be equipped with a sidecar or to be used to tow any trailer or other vehicle.

Ducati does not manufacture sidecars or trailers and cannot predict the effects of such accessories on handling or stability, but can only warn that the effects will be adverse and any damage to motorcycle components caused by the use of such accessories will not be remedied under warranty.

Warning

Do not ride the motorcycle with helmets attached to the hook; the helmets could cause an accident by distracting the operator or interfering with normal vehicle operation.

Protective apparel

Always wear a helmet. Most motorcycle accident fatalities are due to head injuries.

For safety eye protection, gloves, and high top, sturdy boots should also be worn.

The exhaust system becomes very hot during operation, never touch the exhaust system. Wear clothing that fully covers your legs. Do not wear loose clothing which could catch on the control levers, footrests, wheels, or chain.

Any amount of alcohol will significantly interfere with your ability to safely operate your motorcycle. Don't drink and ride.

Vehicle identification number (VIN)

Every Ducati motorcycle is identified by two identification numbers (see page 10). Figure A specifically shows the frame identification numbers.

Ducati limited warranty on emission control system

Ducati North America, Inc., 10443 Bandley Drive, Cupertino, California, 95014 warrants that each new 1998 and later Ducati motorcycle, that includes as standard equipment a headlight, tail-light and stoplight, and is street legal:

A) is designed, built and equipped so as to conform at the time of initial retail purchase with all applicable regulations of the United States Environmental Protection Agency, and the California Air Resources Board; and
B) is free from defects in material and workmanship which cause such motorcycle to fail to conform with applicable regulations of the United States Environmental Protection Agency or the California Air Resources Board for a period of use, 30,000 kilometers (18,641 miles); or 5 (five) years from the date of initial retail delivery, whichever first occurs.

I. Coverage

Warranty defects shall be remedied during customary business hours at any authorized Ducati motorcycle dealer located within the United States of America in compliance with the Clean Air Act and applicable regulations of the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the California Air Resources Board. Any part or parts replaced under this warranty shall become the property of Ducati. In the state of California only, emissions related warranted parts are specifically defined by that state's Emissions Warranty Parts List. These warranted parts are: carburetor and internal parts; intake manifold; fuel tank, fuel injection system; spark advance mechanism; crankcase breather; air

cutoff valves; fuel tank cap for evaporative emission controlled vehicles; oil filler cap; pressure control valve; fuel/vapor separator; canister; igniters; breaker governors; ignition coils; ignition wires; ignition points, condensers, and spark plugs if failure occurs prior to the first scheduled replacement, and hoses, clamps, fittings and tubing used directly in these parts. Since emission related parts may vary from model to model, certain models may not contain all of these parts and certain models may contain functionally equivalent parts.

In the state of California only, Emission Control System emergency repairs, as provided for in the California Administrative Code, may be performed by other than an authorized Ducati dealer. An emergency situation occurs when an authorized Ducati dealer is not reasonably available, a part is not available within 30 days, or a repair is not complete within 30 days. Any replacement part can be used in an emergency repair. Ducati will reimburse the owner for the expenses, including diagnosis, not to exceed Ducati's suggested retail price for all warranted parts replaced and labor charges based on Ducati's recommended time allowance for the warranty repair and the geographically appropriate hourly labor rate. The owner may be required to keep receipts and failed parts in order to receive compensation.

II. Limitations

This Emission Control System Warranty shall not cover any of the following:

A. Repair or replacement required as a result of

(1) accident,
(2) misuse,

(3) repairs improperly performed or replacements improperly installed,
(4) use of replacement parts or accessories not conforming to Ducati specifications which adversely affect performance and/or
(5) use in competitive racing or related events.
B. Inspections, replacement of parts and other services and adjustments required for routine maintenance.
C. Any motorcycle on which odometer mileage has been changed so that actual mileage cannot be readily determined.

III. Limited liability

A. The liability of Ducati under this Emission Control Systems Warranty is limited solely to the remedying of defects in material or workmanship by an authorized Ducati motorcycle dealer at its place of business during customary business hours. This warranty does not cover inconvenience or loss of use of the motorcycle or transportation of the motorcycle to or from the Ducati dealer. Ducati shall not be liable for any other expenses, loss or damage, whether direct, incidental, consequential or exemplary arising in connection with the sale or use of or inability to use the Ducati motorcycle for any purpose. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of any incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations may not apply to you.
B. No express emission control system warranty is given by Ducati except as specifically set forth herein. Any emission control system warranty implied by law, including any warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, is limited to the express emission control systems warranty terms stated in this warranty. The foregoing

statements of warranty are exclusive and in lieu of all other remedies. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts so the above limitation may not apply to you.

C. No dealer is authorized to modify this Ducati Limited Emission Control Systems Warranty.

IV. Legal rights

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.

V. This warranty is in addition to the Ducati limited motorcycle warranty.

VI. Additional information

Any replacement part that is equivalent in performance and durability may be used in the performance of any maintenance or repairs. However, Ducati is not liable for these parts. The owner is responsible for the performance of all required maintenance. Such maintenance may be performed at a service establishment or by any individual. The warranty period begins on the date the motorcycle is delivered to an ultimate purchaser.
