Useful road safety information Waming Read this section before riding your motorcycle. Many accidents are the result of the inexperience of the rider. Always make sure you have your licence with you; you need a valid licence that entitles you to ride a motorcycle. Do not lend your motorcycle to persons who are inexperienced or do not hold a valid licence. Riders and passengers must always wear appropriate clothing and a safety helmet. Do not wear loose clothes or accessories that could become tangled in the controls or limit your field of vision Never start or run the engine in enclosed space. Exhaust gases are toxic and may lead to loss of consciousness or even death within a short time. The rider should keep his/her feet on the footrests when the motorcycle is in motion. Always hold the handiebars firmiy with both hands so you will be ready for sudden changes in direction or in the road surface. The pillon passenger should always hold on to the strap on the pillion seat with both hands Obey the legal requirements and observe national and local regulations Always respect speed limits where these apply, and never exceed the speed allowed by the particular visibility, road and traffic conditions. Always signal your intention to turn or change lane in good time, using the appropriate turn signals. Be sure you are clearly visible and avoid riding within the blind spot of a vehicle in front of you. Be very careful at road junctions, or when riding in areas near exits from private land or car park, or on the slip roads to motonways Always turn off the engine when refuelling. Be extremely careful not to spil fuel on the engine or on the exhaust pipe when refuelling. Do not smoke when refuelling. While refuellng, it is possible to 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 fleaving your motorcycle unattended The engine, exhaust pipes and silencers remain hot for a long time Waming The exhaust system might be hot even after engine is switched off; take special care not to touch the exhaust system with any part of your body and do not park the motorcycle next to inflammable material (wood, leaves, etc.) Park your motorcycle where no one is likely to knock against it, and use the sidestand. Never park on uneven or soft ground, or your motorcycle may fall over.
Riding with a full load Your motorcycle is designed for travelling over long distances with a full load in complete safety. Even weight distribution is critical for maintaining safety standards, and to avoid getting into difficulties when making sudden manoeuvres or riding on bumpy roads. Information on load capacity The total weight of the motorcycle in running order with rider, luggage and additional accessories should not exceed
Arrange your luggage or heavy accessories in the lowest possible position and as close to centre of the motorcycle as possible. Secure the luggage firmiy to the motorcycle structure. Luggage incorrectly secured may cause the motorcycle to become unstable. Never attach bulky or heavy objects to the top yoke or front mudguard, as this would cause dangerous instability Do not insert objects into gaps in the frame, where they could interfere with moving parts. Check that the tyres are inflated to the pressure indicated on page 86 and that they are in good condition
Identification data All Ducati motorcycles have two identification numbers, one for the frame (fig. 1) and one for the engine (fig. 2). Frame number Engine number Notes These numbers indicate the motorcycle model and should be quoted when ordering spare parts.

Instrument panel diagnostics Wamin E Whenever an error is displayed, always contact an O Important authorized Ducati Service Centre. The instrument runs the system diagnostics correctly 60 seconds after the last Key-Off Any errors detected in the behaviour of the motorcycle are displayed Ifthere are several errors, they are displayed in rolling mode every 3 seconds. The table below shows the errors that can be displayed Warning fight Error message Error = CoIL 10.1 Horizontal cylinder coil error CoIL 102 Horizontal cylinder coil error CoIL 11.1 Vertical cylinder coil error CoIL 11.2 Vertical cylinder coil error INJE 12.1 Horizontal cylinder injector error INJE 12.2 Horizontal cylinder injector error
Display backlight The instrument panel backlight is switched on only if the side lights or low/high beam is on. The instrument panel has sensors that measure ambient temperature and light intensity, and automatically turns the backlighting on or off accordingly. Intelligent headlight switch-off This function helps reduce battery use by automatically switching off the headlight. The device is triggered in 3 cases: = in the first case, if you turn the key from OFF to ON and do not start the engine within 60 seconds, the headlight is tumed off and will be turned on again only when the engine is next switched on: in the second case, after the normal use of the motorcycle with the lights on, if the engine is stopped using the RUN-STOP on the right-hand handlebar switch In this case, the headlamp is switched off 60 seconds after the engine is switched off, and only switched on again the next time the engine is started in the third case, the headiight is switched off while the engine is being started and switched back on again when the engine is running, Intelligent headlight switch-on This function allows programmed activation of the headlight even with the motorcycle off (Key-Offl immediately after key-off, the instrument panel remains active for 60 seconds, thus allowing the headlight to be switched on if the button (1, fig. 8) is switched to position B During these 60 seconds, each time switch (1, fig. 8) is pressed in position B "’W", the instrument panel will activate the headlight for 30 seconds; each press of switch (1, fig. 8) in position B “W" will add to the headiight activation time, up to à maximum of 6 presses (equivalent to a maximum activation time of 180 seconds). The first time you press the button (1, fig. 8) in position 8 “w", the 30 second period starts, thus switching on the headlight. Further switch-on time can be added only if you press the button again within these 80 seconds. If the 30 second period has elapsed, no further multiples of 30 seconds can be added, and the instrument panel will switch off the headlight To reset this function, you must perform at least one Key-On/ Key-Off. If the battery power is interrupted at any time while this function is active, when power is restared, the instrument panel will de-activate the function (the instrument panel does not remain active for 60 seconds).
The immobilizer system For additional anti-theft protection, the motorcycle is equipped with an IMMOBILIZER, an electronic system that locks the engine automatically whenever the ignition switch is turned off. The grip of each ignition key contains an electronic device that modulates the output signal from a special antenna in the switch when the ignition is switched On. The modulated signal represents the “password” (which is changed at each start-up) by which the ECU recognizes the ignition key. The ECU will only allow the engine to start if it recognises this password Keys (fg. 24) The owner receives a set of keys, comprising, = 2 black keys (B These contain the “code” of the immobilzer system. Notes Your Ducati dealer may ask you to produce your Code Card in order to carry out certain servicing operations. The black keys (8) are the keys for normal use, and are used to: = Start the engine; = open the lock on the fuel tank filer cap; = open the seat lock
Notes The two keys have a small tag {1} attached, which shows their identification number.
Waming Keep the keys separate, and store the tags (1] in a safe place. Itis also advisable to use only one of the black keys to start the motorcycle Code card A CODE CARD (fig. 25) is supplied with the keys. This shows the electronic code (A, fig. 26) that must be used if the engine is locked by the immobilizer and consequently does not start when the key is tumed to ON. Waming Keep the CODE CARD in a safe place. We advise the user to keep the code printed on the CODE CARD on his/her person at all times in order to be able to override the engine lock using the procedure described below, in the event of a malfunction of the immobilizer system, signalled by illumination of the amber diagnostic light (9, fig. 4). This operation is only possible if the electronic code indicated on the code card is known. Waming Your dealer will ask you to produce the Code Card in order to re-program or replace a key. fig. 25
Immobilizer override procedure Should the immobilizer become locked, you can perform the “Immobilizer Override” procedure from the instrument panel by entering the respective function as follows: select the "CODE" page from the menu. Notes This menu should be active only if there is at least one immobilizer error. With this page selected, the initial code is ahways displayed as "00000". If you hold the button (1, fig. 8) in position B “w" for 3 seconds, you will access the procedure for entering the electronic code given on the Code Card
Entering the code: on entering this function, the first digit on the left starts flashing. Switch (1, fig. 8): each time you press the switch in position BW", the number increases cyclcally in steps of one digit every second: if vou press the switch in position À “A”, you can set the second digit, which will start flashing. Each time you press the switch in position B “W", the number increases cyclically in steps of one digit every second if you press the switch in position À “A”, you can set the third digit, which will start flashing. Each time you press the switch in position B “W", the number increases cyclically in steps of one digit every second if vou press the switch in position À “A”, you can set the fourth digit, which will start flashing. Each time you press the switch in position B “W", the number increases cyclcally in steps of one digit every second if you press the switch in position À “A”, you can set the fifth digit, which will start flashing. Each time you press the switch in position B “W", the number increases cyclically in steps of one digit every second press in position À “A” to confirm the code If the code has been entered correctiy, the message CODE and the code itself will flash simultaneously for 4 seconds. The motorcycle diagnostics warning light (9, fig. 4) will go off. The instrument panel then automatically exits the menu, thus allowing “temporary" starting of the motorcycle. Ifthe error persists, at the next key-on, the instrument panel will return to an error state and immobilize the engine. Ifinstead the code has been entered incorrectiy, the instrument panel will automatically return to the “CODE” menu and display the code 00000"
Operation When the ignition key is turned from ON to OFF, the immobilzer system activates the engine lock. When the ignition key is turned from OFF to ON to start the engine:
1) if the code is recognised, the protection system releases
the engine lock. When you press the START (2, fig. 31) switch, the engine will start up.
2) if the motorcycle diagnostics warning light (9, fig. 4)
comes on and if, when you press the button (1, fig. 8) in the “y” position, the “Error IMMO” message appears on the display, indicating that the code has not been recognised In this case, turn the ignition key back to OFF and then to ON again. If the engine still does not start, try again with the other black key. If the engine still does not start, contact the DUCATI Service network, Waming Sharp knocks can damage the electronic components. inside the key. Always use the same key throughout the procedure. Using different keys could prevent the system from recagnising the code in the key.
Duplicate keys If you need additional keys, contact your DUCATI Service Centre with all the keys you have in your possession and your CODE CARD. The Ducati Service Centre will program all the new keys as. well as any keys you already have. You may be asked to provide proof that you are the legitimate owner of the motorcycle. The codes for any keys not present during the memory programming procedure are cancelled, to ensure that any keys that may have been lost can no longer be used to start the engine. Notes If you sell your motorcycle, do not forget to pass on all the keys and the CODE CARD to the new owner.

Sidestand fig. 41) Le | Important Before lowering the sidestand, check that the ground is sufficiently even and firm. Do nat park on soft ground, gravel or on asphalt softened by the sun etc. or the motorcycle may fall over. When parking on a slope, always park with the rear wheel on the downhill side To lower the sidestand, hold the motorcycle handlebars with both hands and, with your foot, push down the stand (1) until fully extended. Tilt the motorcycle until the sidestand is resting on the ground Waming Do not sit on the motorcycle when it is supported on the sidestand. To raise the sidestand to rest position (horizontal, tit the motorcycle to the right and, at the same time, lift the stand (1} with your foot Notes Itis advisable to check periodically that the stand mechanism (consisting of two springs, one inside the other) and safety sensor (2) are working properly. Notes The engine can be started with the sidestand down and the gearbox in neutral. If starting with a gear engaged, pull in the clutch lever (in this case the sidestand must be up)
Front fork adjusters The front fork can be adjusted for rebound, compression and spring preload. The settings are adjusted by way of external adjuster screws:
1) to adjust rebound damping fig. 42):
2}_to adjust inner spring preload (fig. 42): 3)_to adjust compression damping (fig. 43). Park the motorcycle in a stable position on its sidestand. To adjust the rebound damping setting, turn the adjuster (1) on the top of each fork leg using the special wrench As you turn the adjusters (1 and 3), you will hear them click. Each click corresponds to different damping setting. The stiffest damping setting is obtained with the adjuster turned fully clockwise to the “0” position. Start with this position and turn counterclockwise. Count the clicks, which correspond to position 1, 2 and so forth.
The STANDARD factory settings are as follows: compression: 3/4 turns: rebound 12 clicks. Spring preload (A, fig. 42): 18 mm To change the spring preload for each fork leg, turn the adjuster (2, fig. 42} with a 22 mm hex wrench. le | Important Adjust both fark legs to the same setting.
Rear shock absorber adjusters (fig. 44) The shock absorber has external adjusters that enable you to adjust the suspension to suit the load on the motorcycle. Adjuster (1), located on the left-hand side at the point at which the shock absorber is fixed to the swingarm, controls rebound damping. The adjuster (2) on the shock absorber reservoir controls compression damping, Turn the adjusters (1 and 2) clockwise to stiffen the damping or anti-clockwise to soften it. STANDARD setting: from the fully closed position (tumed fully clockwise), unscrewr adjuster (1) by 2 turns; adjuster (2) by 2 turns. Spring preload: 20 mm. The two nuts (3) on the upper part of the shock absorber serve to adjust the preload on the external spring. To change spring preload, slacken off the upper lock nut. Then tighten or loosen the lower nut to increase or decrease spring preload as required \?Y \ NS IN fig. 44
Once the desired spring preload has been set, re-tighten the upper lock nut. A RU Use a pin wrench to turn the preload adjusting nut. Take special care when turning the nut, to avoid injuring your hand by striking it violently against other parts of the motorcycle if the wrench suddenly slips off the nut while tuming Waming The shock absorber is filled with gas under pressure and may cause severe damage if taken apart by unskilled persons. If you plan to carry a passenger and luggage, adjust the rear shock absorber spring load to the maximum setting to improve the handling characteristics of the motorcycle and to avoid the possibilty of ground contact. It may also be necessary to adjust the rebound damping accordingly.
ali To allow all the mechanical moving parts in the motorcycle to Riding the motorcycle adapt to one another and to avoid ehortenng he a ot he Pa main engine components, it is advisable to avoid sudden acceleration and running the engine at high rpm for toa long, especially uphil Itis also advisable to check the drive chain frequentiy and ensure that it is lubricated as required. Running-in precautions Max. rpm (9. 45) Rpm limits to be observed during the running-in period and in normal use: 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 rev counter. The indicator must not exceed 5600-6000 rpm During the first hours of riding, it is advisable to continuously vary the load on the engine and the rpm, though stil! keeping within the above limits. For this reason, roads with numerous bends and hilly areas are ideal for running in the engine, brakes and suspension: For the first 100 km, use the brakes gently. Do not brake violently or keep brake applied for too long. This will enable à correct break-in of friction material on brake pads against brake discs.
From 1000 to 2500 km AL this point, you can ask for mare power from the engine, being careful, however, never to exceed 7000 rpm Important Throughout the running-in period, be careful to stick to the recommended maintenance schedule and periodic service intervals indicated in the warranty booklet. Failure to follow these instructions releases Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A. from any liability whatsoever for any engine damage or shorter engine life. Keeping to the running-in recommendations will ensure longer engine life and reduce the need for overhauls and re-tuningl
Pre-ride checks Waming Failure to carry out these checks before starting may. result in damage to the motorcycle and injury to rider. Before starting, check the following points: Fuel level in the tank Check the fuel level in the tank. Re-fuel if necessary (page 66). Engine oil level Check the oil level in the sump through the sight glass Top up if necessary (page 88) Brake and clutch fluid Check the fluid levels in the respective reservoirs (page 73). Coolant Check coalant level in the expansion reservoir. Top up if necessary (page 72) Tyre condition Check the pressure and condition of the tyres (page 86) Controls Operate the brake, clutch, throttie and gear change controls llevers, pedals and twistgripl to check that they function correctiy Lights and indicators Make sure the lights, indicators and horn work properly. Replace any burnt-out bulbs (page 80) Key locks Check that the fuel filler cap (page 521 and the seat are locked (page 53) Sidestand Make sure the sidestand operates smoothly and is in the correct position (page 54). Waming Ifthere are any faults or malfunctions, do not start the motorcycle and contact your DUCATI Dealer or Authorized Service Centre.
Starting the engine Waming Before starting the engine, familiarise yourself with the controls that you will use when riding (page 10) Waming Never start or run the engine in enclosed space. Exhaust gases are toxic and may lead to loss of consciousness or even death within a short time.
1) Turn the ignition key to ON (fig. 46). Check that both
the green light N and the red light #7 on the instrument panel come on. Important The oil pressure warning light should go out a few seconds after the engine has started (page 11). CA RS The sidestand should be in rest position (horizontal), otherwise the safety sensor prevents the engine starting. bé The engine can be started with the sidestand down and the gearbox in neutral. If starting with a gear engaged, pull in the clutch lever (in this case the sidestand must be up).
2) Check that the stop switch (2, fig. 47) is positioned to ©
{RUN), then press the starter button (3, fig. 47). le Important Do not rev the engine when cold. Allow some time for the oil to warm up and reach all points that need lubricating.
1) Disengage the clutch by squeezing the clutch lever.
2) Push down the gearchange lever firmlÿ with the tip of your
foot to engage first gear.
3) Raise the engine revs by turning the throttle twistgrip
while gradually releasing the clutch lever. The motorcycle will start moving.
4) Release the clutch lever completely and accelerate.
5) To change up to the next gear, close the throttle to
reduce the engine revs, disengage the clutch, lift the gearchange lever and release the clutch lever. To change down, proceed as follows: release the twistgrip, disengage the clutch, briefly rev the engine to allow the gears to synchronize, shift down and release the clutch lever. Use the controls intelligently and opportunely: when riding uphill, do not hesitate to shift down as soon as the motorcycle starts to slow down, so you will avoid overloading the engine and putting too much strain on the the motorcycle generally. Important Avoid sudden acceleration, as this may lead to misfiring and transmission snatching. The clutch lever should not be held in longer than necessary after a gear is engaged, otherwise friction parts may overheat and wear out. Braking Slow down in time, change down to use the engine brake, then apply both brakes. Pull in the clutch lever before the motorcycle comes to a stop to prevent the engine stalling. Waming Use both the brake lever and the brake pedal for effective braking. Using only one of the brakes will give you less braking power. Never use the brake controls harshly or suddenly as you may lock the wheels and lose control of the matarcycle. When riding in the rain or on slippery surfaces, braking capacity is significantly reduced. Always use the brakes very gently and carefully when riding under these conditions. Any sudden manoeuvres may lead to loss of control When riding down long, steep downhill slopes, change down to use engine braking. Apply the brakes intermittentiy for brief periods only. Keeping the brakes applied continuously causes the friction material to overheat and dangerously reduces braking effectiveness. Underinflated or over-inflated tyres reduce braking efficiency and may adversely affect safe riding and road-holding on bends.
Stopping the motorcycle Reduce speed, change down and release the throttle twistgrip. Change down to engage first gear and then neutral. Apply the brakes and bring the motorcycle to a complete stop. Switch the engine off by tuming the key to OFF (page 43) Parking Stop and park the motorcycle on the sidestand {see page 54) To prevent theft, turn the handlebar fully left and turn the ignition key to the LOCK position. If you park in a garage or other indoor area, make sure that there is proper ventilation and that the motorcycle is not near à source of heat. If necessary, you can leave the sidelights on by turning the key to position P. le Important Do not leave the key at P for lang periods or the battery will run down. Never leave the motorcycle unattended with the ignition key inserted A RUE The exhaust system might be hot even after engine is switched off; take special care not to touch the exhaust system with any part of your body and do not park the motorcycle next to inflammable material (wood, leaves, etc. Waming Using padiocks or other locks designed to prevent movement of the motorcycle (such as brake disc locks, rear sprocket locks, and so ani is very dangerous, and may impair motorcycle operation and the safety of rider and passenger.
Refuelling tig. 48) Do not overfil the tank when refuelling. The fuel level should always be below the rim of the filler recess. Warning Use fuel with low lead content and an original octane number of 95 minimum (see table “Fluids and lubricants" on page 97) Check that no fuel is trapped in the filler cap recess: Max level © — fig. 48
Toolkit and accessories (fig. 49) The compartment under the pillion seat contains: Use and maintenance manual; toolkit consisting of. = spark plug wrench; = tommy bar for spark plug wrench; -_ double-ended screwdriver; - Allen key for fairing panels: fig. 49
Main Maintenance Operations Removal of the fairings Some parts of the motorcycle fairing have to be removed for certain maintenance or repair operations. A Waming If parts that have been removed are not refitted correctiy they may become loose suddenty while riding and cause you to lose control of your motorcycle. Important On refitting the headlight fairing, always refit the nylon washers in correspondence with the retaining screws to avoid damaging the painted parts and the Plexiglas windshield. Side fairings Remove the side fairings using the Allen key located in the underseat compartment, unscrew the two bolts (1) securing the fairing panels to the brackets; the six boits (2) securing the fairing panels ta the headlight fairing; the four bolts (3) securing the fairing panels to the frame; the two bolts (4) located under the fairing that join the right fairing panel to the left fairing panel; the two bolts (5) securing the fairing panels to the oil cooler: the two bolts (6, fig. 51) securing the front of the fairing to the headiight fairing
Notes Be careful of the splashguard, which is released by the fairing panel fastening. Notes To refit the left fairing panel, lower the sidestand and pass it through the aperture in the panel.
Rearview mirrors Unscrew the bolts {1} securing the rearview mirror. Release the pins (2) from the retaining clips (3) attached to the headlight fairing bracket (4). Slip off the rubber covers (51 and disconnect the turn indicator wiring connectors (6) Repeat the procedure to remove the other rearview mirror. Important On refitting, apply medium-strength threadiocker to the threads of the bolts (1).
Headlight fairing Notes To remove the headlight fairing, first remove the rear- view mirrors and side fairing panels as described above. Unscrew the two rear bolts (1) securing the headlight fairing to the headlight support Notes After refitting the headlight fairing, refit the side body panels and rear-view mirrors.
Checking and topping up the coolant fig. 56) Check the coolant level in the expansion reservoir on the right side of the motorcycle. It should be between the two marks (1) and (2). Mark (2) indicates MAX level, and mark (1) indicates MIN level Top up if below the MIN level Remove the right-hand fairing (page 68) Unscrew the filler cap (3, fig. 55) and add a mixture consisting of water and antifreeze SHELL Advance Coolant or Glycoshell (35-40% of the volume) up to the MAX mark. Refit the cap (3) and replace all removed parts. This type of mixture gives the best operating conditions {the coolant starts to freeze at -20 °C/-4 °F) Cooling circuit capacity: 2,3 dm? litres). Waming This operation must be carried out with the engine cold and with the motorcycle vertical and level.
Checking the brake and clutch fluid level The level must not fall below the MIN mark on the corresponding reservoir (fig. 56] {the figure shows the front and rear brake fluid reservoirs). If the level is too low, air can get into the circuit, thus impairing the efficiency of the system. Brake and clutch fluid must be topped up and changed at the intervals specified in the routine maintenance table {see Warranty Booklet) by a Ducati Dealer or Authorized Service Centre. le Important Itis recommended that all brake and clutch hoses be renewed every four years. Brake system If there is excessive play at the brake lever or pedal even though the brake pads are still in good condition, contact a Ducati Dealer or Authorized Service Centre to have the system inspected and any air expelled from the circuit. Waming Brake and clutch fluid can damage paintwork and plastic parts, so avoid contact. Hydraulic fluid is corrosive and can cause damage and injuries. Never mix fluids of different qualities. Check that the seals are in good condition.
Clutch system If there is too much play at the clutch lever and the motorcycle jumps or stops when a gear is engaged, this indicates air in the system. Contact a Ducati Dealer or Authorized Service Centre to have the system inspected and the air bled from the system Waming The clutch fluid level in the reservoir tends to rise as the friction material on the clutch plates wears out. Do not exceed the specified level (3 mm above the minimum level).
Checking the brake pads for wear fig. 58) The brake pads are marked with wear indicators so that they. can be checked without removing them from the calipers. I# the grooves in the pad friction material are still visible, the pad is still in good condition. le Important Have the brake pads replaced by a Ducati Dealer or Authorized Service Centre
Lubricating cables and linkages The condition of the outer throttle and choke cables should be checked at regular intervals. The outer cables should show no signs of kinking or cracking. Operate the controls to make sure the inner cables slide smoothly inside the outer cables: if you feel any friction or catching, have the cable replaced by a Ducati Dealer or Authorized Service Centre. To prevent problems, periodically open the twistgrip housing by unscrewing the two bolts (1, fig. 59) and lubricate the ends of each control cable and the races with SHELL Advance Grease or Retinax LX2. Waming Close the twistgrip housing carefully, inserting the cable in the race. Refit the housing and tighten the boits {1} to 10 Nm. To ensure smooth operation of the sidestand pivot, remove dirt and apply SHELL Alvania R3 grease to all friction points.
Adjustment of the throttle cable free play In all handiebar positions, the throttle twistgrip should have free play of 1.5 to 2.0 mm measured at the edge of the twistgrip. If necessary, adjust using the adjusters (1 and 2, fig. 61) located on the steering tube on the right-hand side of the motorcycle. Adjuster (1) is for throttle opening, and adjuster (2) is for throttle closing. Peel back the sleeves to access the adjusters and slacken the locknuts. Adjust both adjusters by the same amount: turn clockwise to increase free play and anti-clockwise to reduce free play. When finished, tighten the locknuts and replace the sleeves.
Charging the battery (ia. 62) Before charging the battery, it is best to remove it from the motorcycle. Remove the left-hand side fairing (page 68), unscrew the bol (1) and remove the mounting bracket (2). Always disconnect the black negative terminal (-} first, and then the red positive terminal (#} Waming The battery produces explosive gases: keep it away from heat sources and flames. Charge the battery in a wellventilated area Connect the battery charger leads to the battery terminals: red to the positive terminal (+), black to the negative terminal (+ Important Connect the battery to the charger before switching on: failure to do so can result in sparking at the battery terminals, which could ignite the gases inside the cells. Always connect the red positive terminal (+) first. Replace the battery in its support (3), then connect the terminals. Apply some grease to the bots to improve conductivity and fasten the bracket (2) with the bolt (1).
Waming Keep the battery out of the reach of children Charge the battery at 0.9 À for 5 to 10 hours.
Checking the chain tension (ia. 63) le Important Using non-specific lubricants may cause severe damage to the chain and the front and rear sprocket. le Important Have the chain tensioned at a Ducati Dealer or Authorized Workshop. Chain tensioning {on sidestand): hold a rule half way along the bottom run of the chain, push down on the chain and adjust the tension until the distance between the aluminium of the swingarm and the centre of the chain pin is 31 to 33 mm: A Waming The tensioner lock nuts (1} must be tightened correctly to ensure rider safety. Important An incorrectly tensioned chain will cause the rapid wear of transmission parts. Lubricating the drive chain The chain fitted on your motorcycle has O-rings that keep dirt out of and lubricant inside the sliding parts. So as not to damage these seals when cleaning the chain, use special solvents and avoid aggressive washing with high-pressure steam cleaners. After cleaning, blow the chain dry with compressed air or wipe with an absorbent material, then lubricate each link with SHELL Advance Chain or Advance Teflon Chain.
Changing the high and low beam bulbs Before replacing a burnt-out bulb, make sure that the new one matches the voltage and wattage specifications in the “Electrical System" paragraph on page 103. Always check that the new bulb works before refitting removed parts; fig. 64 shows the position of the low beam (LO), high bear (HI) and side light (1) bulbs. Headlight To gain access ta the left-hand bulb, remove the cover (2} by pressing the lever (A). Rotate the locking ring nut (3) of the upper bulb body anti-clockwise and extract the burnt-out bulb. Replace with à bulb of equal rating On refitting, rotate the locking ring nut (8) clockwise to secure the bulb in place The right-hand bulb is replaced in the same way.
Notes Itis not necessary to disconnect the main wiring loom cable in order to replace the headlight bulbs: Notes e 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. Refitting After changing the burnt-out bulb, replace the cover and close it by pressing it against the lever.
Changing the sidelight bulb To access the sidelights {1}, reach your hand inside the headlight support and take the bulb-holders out of their seats. Turn the bulb retaining ring (1) anti-clockwise and remove the burnt-out bulb. Renew the burnt-out bulb. On refitting, turn the bulbs (1) clockwise to secure.

The bulb has a bayonet-type end fitting; to remove it, push it in and turn it counter-clockwise. Push in the new bulb and turn it clockwise until it clicks into place. Refi the indicator body (2) to its support and rotate it by a quarter of à turn Number plate light (fig. 68) To access the number plate light bulb, unscrew the bolt (3) securing the cover (4). Remove the bulb and replace it.
Headlight aim fig. 69) To check the headlight aim, place the motorcycle upright with the tyres inflated to the correct pressure and one person sitting astride the motorcycle. The motorcycle should be perfectly vertical, with its longitudinal axis at right angles to a wall or screen at a distance of 10 metres. Draw a horizontal line on the wall at the height of the centre of the headlight and a vertical one in line with the longitudinal axis of the motorcycle. If possible, perform this check in conditions of low ambient light. Switch on the low beam headlight: the height of the upper limit between the dark area and the lit area must not be more than nine tenths of the height of the centre of the headlamp from the ground ps \otes bd This is the procedure specified by Italian regulations for checking the maximum height of the light beam Owners in other countries should adapt this procedure to the regulations in force in the country where the motorcycle is used.
The horizontal position of the left-hand headlight can be adjusted by means of the adjuster screw (1, fig. 70) located behind the headlight. Turn the screw clockwise and the beam will shift to the right; turning the screw anti-clockwise will shift the beam to the left The vertical position of the left-hand headlight can be adjusted by means of the adjuster screw (2, fig. 70) located behind the headlight. Turn the screw clockwise to lower the beam or anti-clockwise to raise it. Repeat the above procedure to adjust the right-hand headlamp. Rearview mirror adjustment (fig. 71) The rearview mirror is adjusted manually by applying pressure at point (A).
As tyre pressures are affected by changes in temperature and altitude, check and adjust them whenever you are riding in areas where there are large variations in temperature or altitude Important Check and adiust the pressures with the tyres cold To prevent distortion of the front wheel rim, increase tyre pressure by 0.2 to 0.3 bar when riding on bumpy roads. Tyre repair or replacement (Tubeless) With minor punctures, tubeless tyres take a long time to deflate, as they tend to hold the air inside. If you find that one of the tyres is slightiy deflated, check the tyre for slow punctures. Maming unctured tyres must be renewed Replace with tyres of the original brand and type. Be sure to tighten the valve dust caps securely to prevent leaks while riding. Never fit tyres with inner tubes, as these can cause the tyre to burst suddenly, with possibly serious consequences for the rider and passenger. After changing the tyre, the wheel must be balanced le Important Do not remove or alter the position of the wheel balancing weights pa Notes If tyres need changing, contact a Ducati Dealer or Authorized Service Centre to make sure wheels are removed and refitted correctly.
Minimum tread depth Measure the tread depth (S, fig. 72) at the point where the tread is most worn. Itshould not be less than 2 mm, and in any case notless than the legal limit Important Visually inspect the tyres at regular intervals for cracks and cuts, especially on the side walls, and bulges or large stains that indicate internal damage. Replace them if badiy damaged. Remove any stones or other foreign bodies stuck in the tread. fig. 72
Checking the engine oil level (fg. 73) Check the engine oil level through the sight glass (1) on the clutch-side crankcase cover. When checking oil level, the motorcycle should be perfectly upright and the engine cold. The ail level should be between the two marks next to the sight glass. Top up the oil level with SHELL Advance Ultra 4, if low. Undo the filler cap (2) and top up to correct level Replace the filler cap. Important To change the engine oil and filters at the intervals specified in the maintenance table in the Warranty Booklet, contact a Ducati dealer or Authorized Service Centre. Oil viscosity SAE 15W-50 The other viscosity values shown in the table can be used if the local average temperature is within the limits specified for that oil viscosity. Unigrade Muigrade
Cleaning and renewing the spark plugs fig. 74) Spark plugs are an important part of the engine and should be checked at regular intervals. The condition of the spark plugs provides a good indication of how well the engine is running. Have the spark plugs inspected or renewed at a Ducati Dealer or Authorized Workshop. Firstly, they will check the colour of the ceramic insulator of the central electrode: an even brown colour is a sign that the engine is in good running order. Notes Secondly, they will check the central electrode for wear and measure electrode gap. The electrode gap should be 2-0.8 to 0.1 mm. Important A gap outside the specified limits will adversely affect engine performance and may lead to difficult starting or erratic idling. 2-0,8 + 0,1 mm fig. 74
General cleaning To preserve the original shine on metal surfaces and paintwork, wash and clean your motorcycle at regular intervals depending on the type of use and according to the particular road conditions. Use specific products, where possible biodegradable. Avoid aggressive detergents or solvents. le Important Do not wash your motorcycle immediately after use, as marks can form due to evaporation of the water on hot surfaces. Never clean the motorcycle using hot or high- pressure water jets. Cleaning the motoroycle with a high pressure water jet may lead to seizure or serious fault in the front fork, wheel hub assembly, electrical system, front fork seals, air inlets or exhaust silencers, with conséquent loss of safety. If parts of the engine are unusually dirty or greasy, use a degreasing agent, avoiding contact with transmission components (chain, front and rear sprockets, etc.). Rinse with warm water and dry all surfaces with chamois leather.
Warning here may be loss of braking efficiency immediately after washing the motorcycle. Never grease or lubricate the brake discs. This will cause loss of braking efficiency. Clean the discs with an oil-free solvent.
Storing the motorcycle Ithe motorcycle is to be left unused for a long period, it is advisable to carry out the following operations first: clean the motorcycle: drain the fuel from fuel tank; pour a few drops of engine ail into the cylinders through the spark plug bores, then turn the engine over by hand a few times to form a protective film of ail on the inner walls of the cylinder: place the motorcycle on the paddock stand: disconnect and remove the battery. If the motorcycle has been left unused for more than a month, the battery should be checked and re-charged if necessary. Protect the motorcycle with a specific motorcycle cover that will not damage the paintwork or retain moisture. This type of motorcycle cover is available from Ducati Performance. Important notes The legislation in some countries (France, Germany, Great Britain, Switzerland, etc.) sets certain noise and pollution standards. Periodically carry out the required checks and renew parts as necessary, using Ducati original spare parts, in compliance with the regulations in the country concerned.

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, DC. 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 wamings Traffic Rules vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Know the regulations in your jurisdiction before riding this motorcycle. [A SE 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.À. 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, 10443 Bandiey Drive, Cupertino, California, 95014 Tel: 001.408.253.0499 - Fax: 001.408.253.4099. 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.
USA JEU 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 throttie 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 throttie body and fuel tank Tampering waming 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 systern. (8) Lack of proper maintenance {@) 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 backtiring 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 shoud be carefully observed for safe and effective vehicle operation. À 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 throttie should also be used judiciousiy 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 | à lower gear to obtain the necessary power. D 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 stebility and the loss of control Operate motorcycle only at moderate speed and out of traffic until you have become thoroughiy famili with its operation and handling characteristics under all conditions. This is à very high performance motorcycle, designed and intended for use by experienced careful riders only! À new motorcycle must be operated according to a special breakin procedure (see Running in recommendations} LA HAE 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.
USA JEU Always close the fuel petcock when the engine is not running to prevent flooding of the throttle body. Do not overfil fuel tank (see instructions page 55) Motorcycle exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide ges. 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 war that the effects wil be adverse and any damage to motorcycle components caused by the use of such accessories wil not be remedied under warranty. LA HSE 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 fatalties are due to head injures. 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 wil significantly interfere with your ability to safely operate your motorcycle. Don't drink and ride.
