Introduction
Safety guidelines
We would like to welcome you among Ducati enthusiasts, and congratulate you on your excellent choice of motorcycle. We think you will ride your Ducati motorcycle for long journeys as well as short daily trips. Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A. wishes you smooth and enjoyable riding.
Your motorcycle is the result of Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A.'s on-going research and development efforts. It is important that you preserve its quality standard by strictly observing the maintenance plan and using genuine spare parts. This manual provides instructions on minor maintenance operations. Major maintenance operations are described in the Workshop Manual available to Ducati Authorised Service Centres.
In your own interest, for your safety and in order to guarantee product reliability, you are strongly advised to refer to our authorised Dealers and Service Centres for any operations listed in the scheduled maintenance chart, see page 194.
Our highly skilled staff have access to special implements and appropriate equipment required to perform any servicing job at best, and use Ducati original spare parts only as the best guarantee for full interchangeability, smooth running and long life.
All Ducati motorcycles come with a Warranty Card. The warranty does not apply to motorcycles used in racing competitions.
Tampering with or altering any components, even partially, will make the warranty null and void effective immediately. Improper or poor maintenance, using other than original spare parts or parts not expressly approved by Ducati may invalidate your warranty rights and lead to damage or loss of performance.
Your safety and that of other road users are very important. Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A. recommends that you ride responsibly.
Before using your motorcycle for the first time, read this entire manual carefully and closely follow the guidelines outlined in it. The manual provides full information on proper motorcycle operation and maintenance. In case of any doubts, please contact a Dealer or Authorised Service Centre.

This motorcycle may not be used to tow any trailers or with a side-car attached; this can lead to loss of control and result in an accident.
This motorcycle carries the rider and can carry a passenger.

Warning
The total weight of the motorcycle in running order including rider, passenger, luggage and additional accessories should not exceed 390kg/859lb.

Important
Using the motorcycle under extreme conditions, such as very damp and muddy roads or dusty and dry environment, could cause above-average wear of components like the drive system, the brakes or the air filter. If the air filter is dirty, the engine could get damaged. Therefore, this might translate in required service or replacement of the wear parts earlier than specified in the scheduled maintenance chart.
Rider's obligations
All riders must hold a valid licence.

Warning
Riding without a licence is illegal and is prosecuted by law. Always make sure you have your licence with you when riding. Do not let inexperienced riders or persons without a valid licence use your motorcycle.
Do not ride under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs.

Warning
Riding under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs is illegal and is prosecuted by law.
Do not take prescription or other drugs before riding unless you have consulted your doctor about their side effects.
Warning Some med
Some medications and drugs may cause drowsiness or other effects that slow down reaction time and the rider's ability to control the motorcycle, possibly leading to an accident.
Some states require vehicle insurance.
Warning Check you
Check your state laws. Obtain insurance coverage and keep your insurance document secure with the other motorcycle documents.
To protect rider and passenger safety, some states mandate the use of a certified helmet.
Warning Check you

Odometer (TOT)
The odometer counts and displays the total distance covered by the motorcycle with the set unit of measurement (km or mi).
The odometer number (in km or miles) is displayed with the message TOT and the indication of the unit of measurement. When the maximum value is reached (199999 km or 199999 mi) the instrument panel will permanently display said value.
The odometer value is saved permanently and cannot be reset under any circumstances.
The reading is not lost in case of a power OFF (Battery OFF).

Note
If a string of flashing dashes " — " is displayed within odometer function, please contact a Ducati Dealer or Authorised Service Centre.

Trip meter 1 (TRIP 1)
The trip meter counts and displays the partial distance covered by the motorcycle with the set unit of measurement (km or mi) and is used as a basis to calculate average fuel consumption, average speed and trip time. The TRIP1 number (in km or miles) is displayed with the message TRIP1 and the indication of the unit of measurement.
When the reading exceeds the maximum value of 9999.9 km or 9999.9 mi, distance travelled is reset and the meter automatically starts counting from 0 again.
While the trip meter is displayed, press button (1) for 2 seconds to reset TRIP 1. When TRIP1 is reset, the average fuel consumption, average speed and trip time data are reset as well.
The TRIP1 counter is automatically reset in case the system unit of measurement is changed manually or after a battery-OFF: the counter will then start back from zero, considering the new units of measurement.

Trip meter 2 (TRIP 2)
The trip meter counts and displays the partial distance covered by the motorcycle with the set unit of measurement (km or mi).
The TRIP2 number (in km or miles) is displayed with the message TRIP2 and the indication of the unit of measurement.
When the reading exceeds the maximum value of 9999.9 km or 9999.9 mi, distance travelled is reset and the meter automatically starts counting from 0 again.
While the trip meter is displayed, press button (1) for 2 seconds to reset TRIP 2.
The TRIP2 counter is automatically reset in case the system unit of measurement is changed manually or after a battery-OFF: the counter will then start back from zero, considering the new units of measurement.

Partial fuel reserve counter (TRIP FUEL)
The fuel trip meter counts and displays the distance covered by the motorcycle on reserve (since the low fuel light turns on) with the set unit of measurement (km or mi).
When the Low Fuel Light (A) turns on, the display automatically shows the TRIP FUEL function in Menu 1, regardless of the currently displayed function; then, it is possible to toggle through the other Menu functions using button (1).
Trip fuel reading remains stored even after Key-Off until the motorcycle is refuelled. Count is interrupted automatically as soon as fuel is topped up to above minimum level.
When the reading exceeds the maximum value of 9999.9 km or 9999.9 mi, distance travelled is reset and the meter automatically starts counting from 0 again.

Note
If the system measurement units are changed at any moment, or if there is an interruption in the power supply (Battery Off), the distance travelled is reset and the count starts from zero (considering the newly set unit of measurement).
Trip time
The instrument panel calculates and displays the trip time as hhh:mm followed by TRIP TIME. The calculation considers the time since TRIP1 was last reset. When TRIP1 is reset, this value is reset as well. The time count active phase occurs when the engine is running and the motorcycle is stopped (the time is automatically stopped when the motorcycle is not moving and the engine is OFF and restarts when the counting active phase starts again).
When the reading exceeds 511:00 (511 hours and 00 minutes), the meter is reset and automatically starts counting from 0 again.


Note
If you change the unit of measurement for an item connected to Speed (and distance) or Consumption or after a Battery-Off, the trip time value will be automatically reset.
Clock
The instrument panel receives information about the time to be displayed.
The instrument panel shows the time in the following format:
- hh (hours) : mm (minutes);
- followed by a.m. (from 12:00 to 11:59) or p.m.
(from 12:00 to 11:59).
In case of a power off (Battery Off), upon the following Key-On, the instrument panel displays 4 dashes "---:
-- " steadily and with flashing colon.

Fig. 21
Menu 2 functions
Menu 2 displayed functions are:
- Average speed (SPEED AVG)

Average speed
The instrument panel calculates and displays the motorcycle average speed, the set unit of measurement and SPEED AVG text.
The calculation considers the distance and time since TRIP1 was last reset.
The average speed value displayed is calculated by adding 5% so as to be consistent with motorcycle speed indication.

Note
It is possible to change the units of measurement of "speed" (and "distance" travelled) from Km/h (and Km) to mph (and miles) through the Setting menu, using the "SET UNITS" Function.
When TRIP1 is reset, the value is reset and the first value available is displayed 10 seconds after the reset. During the first 10 seconds, when the value is not yet available, the display will show a string of three dashes "---" steadily as average speed.
The active calculation phase occurs when the engine is running even if the motorcycle is stopped (moments when the motorcycle is not moving and the engine is OFF are not considered).

F.A.Q.
1) Why don't I receive any notification of received e-mails?
E-mails are notified only if configured on the telephone source application. Check also that your phone supports the MAP profile.
If so, the DUCATI MULTIMEDIA SYSTEM, during the pairing phase, will send an access request to such profile which can be notified to the user explicitly (depending on the operating system) by requesting access authorisation to message notifications.
2) Why don't I receive any notification of received messages?
Check that your phone supports the MAP profile. If so, the DUCATI MULTIMEDIA SYSTEM, during the pairing phase, will send an access request to such profile which can be notified to the user explicitly (depending on the operating system) by requesting access authorisation to message notifications.
3) Earphones do not connect. Why?
If they have been already paired once, we recommend resetting the earphones and pair them again with the motorcycle (see earphones instruction manual).
4) When I receive a call, the instrument panel displays the caller number but not the name (despite being saved in the contact list).
Check that the phone supports the PBAP profile. If so, the DUCATI MULTIMEDIA SYSTEM, during the pairing phase, will send an access request to such profile which can be notified to the user explicitly (depending on the operating system) by requesting access authorisation to the phone contact list.
5) By activating the Player through the instrument panel, music does not start.
The activation depends on the phone settings. In this case, after activating the Player through the instrument panel, also start the music application on your Smartphone.
6) It happens that the music is played with continuous interruptions.
If the devices have just been connected, it may be that the Bluetooth control unit is still completing the connection phase with the concerned devices. It is furthermore necessary to activate the PBAP and MAP profiles. Therefore, in case of iOS, please refer to point 7). In case of Android, please refer to points 2)4)
7) I do not receive any message notification on my iPhone. Why?
Select Bluetooth in the Setting Menu. In the list "My devices" select "i" next to "Ducati Media System". Flag "Show notifications".

The "Hazard" function turns all four turn indicators on at the same time to signal an emergency condition. Push button (6) to activate the "Hazard" function. Activation is only possible when motorcycle is ON (i.e. when key is turned to "ON" while engine status does not matter). When the "Hazard" function is active, all four turn indicators blink at the same time as well as warning lights (7) on the instrument panel. The "Hazard" function can be disabled both with vehicle on (key turned to "ON") and vehicle off (key turned to OFF) by pressing button (6).
Once the "Hazard" function is activated, if vehicle is turned off (key turned to "OFF"), the function stays active until manually disabled by the user or for 2 hours. After 2 hours, the turn indicators switch OFF automatically in order to save battery charge.

Note
If user performs a Key-ON while the "Hazard" function is still active, the function will remain ON (temporary turn indicator control interruption is allowed during the instrument panel initial check routine).


Note
If there is a sudden interruption in the battery while the function is active, the instrument panel will disable the function when the voltage is restored.

Note
The "Hazard" function has higher priority compared to normal operation of the single turn indicators, this means that, as long as it is active, it will not be possible to activate the single right or left turn indicators.
Immobilizer system
To further improve the anti-theft protection, the motorcycle is equipped with an engine electronic block system (IMMOBILIZER) that is automatically activated every time the instrument panel is switched off.
Inside of each key handgrip there is an electronic device that modulates the signal sent by a special antenna integrated in the ignition switch upon starting.
Such modulated signal represents the "password", that changes upon every starting, that allows the control unit to acknowledge the key and thus starting the engine.
Keys
The motorcycle comes with 2 keys. They contain the "Immobilizer system code". Keys (B) are those for the standard use, i.e. to:
- start the engine;
- open the fuel tank plug;
- open the seat lock.

Warning
Separate the keys and use only one of the two to ride the bike.

Operation
Every time you turn the key from ON to OFF, the protection system activates the engine block. If also in this case you are not able to start the engine, contact an authorised Ducati service centre.

Warning
Strong impacts could damage the electronic components inside the key. During the procedure always use the same key. Using different keys may prevent the system from acknowledging the code of the inserted key.
Key duplication
When a customer needs spare keys, he/she shall contact a Ducati authorised service centre and bring all keys he/she still has.
The Ducati authorised service centre will program all new and old keys.
The Ducati authorised service centre may ask to the customer to prove to be the motorcycle owner.
The codes of the keys missing during the programming procedure will be erased to ensure that any lost key can not start the engine.

Note
If the motorcycle owner changes, it is necessary that the new owner is given all keys.
Restoring motorcycle operation via the PIN CODE
In case of key acknowledgement system or key malfunction, the instrument panel allows the user to enter his/her own PIN code to temporarily restore motorcycle operation.
If the PIN CODE function is active, the instrument panel enables in "Menu 1" the possibility to enter the PIN CODE.
Entering the code:
1) Press button (2) or (1), only one digit indicating "0" starts flashing;
2) Each time you press button (2) the displayed number increases by one (+ 1) up to "9" and then starts back from "0";
3) Each time you press the button (1) the displayed number decreases by one (-1) up to "1" and then starts back from "0";
4) To confirm the number, press the button (4);
Repeat the procedures until you confirm all the digits of the PIN CODE.

Riding the motorcycle
Running-in recommendations

Important
Before using the motorcycle, check for no labels
on the rear-view mirrors; otherwise remove them.
Maximum rotation speed
Rotation speed for running-in period and during standard use (rpm):
1) up to 1,000 km (600 mi);
2) From 1000 (600) to 2500 km (1553 mi).
up to 1,000 km (600 mi).
During the first 1000 km (600 mi), keep an eye on the rev counter. It should never exceed: 5,500÷6,000 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 slightly hilly areas are ideal for a most efficient running-in of engine, brakes and suspensions.
For the first 100 km (60 mi) use the brakes gently.
Avoid sudden or prolonged braking. This will allow the friction material on the brake pads to bed in against the brake discs.
For all mechanical parts of the motorcycle 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 km (600 mi) to 2500 km (1553 mi).
At this point, you can squeeze some more power out of your engine. However never exceed 7,000rpm.

Important
During the whole running-in period, the
maintenance and service rules recommended in the Warranty Card should be observed carefully. Failure to follow these instructions releases Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A. from any liability whatsoever for any 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 motorcycle as follows:
- FUEL LEVEL IN THE TANK
Check the fuel level in the tank. Fill tank if needed (page 164).
- ENGINE OIL LEVEL
Check oil level in the sump through the sight glass. Top up if needed (page 188).
- BRAKE FLUID
Check fluid level in the relevant reservoirs (page 168).
- TYRE CONDITION
Check tyre pressure and condition (page 185).
- CONTROLS
Work the brake, clutch, throttle and gear change controls (levers, pedals and twistgrip) and check for proper operation.
- LIGHTS AND INDICATORS
Make sure lights, indicators and horn work properly. Replace any burnt-out bulbs (page 180).
- KEY LOCKS
Ensure that tank filler plug (page 145) and seat (page 146) are properly locked.
- STAND
Make sure side stand operates smoothly and is in the correct position (page 147).
ABS light
After Key-ON, the ABS light (9, stays ON.
When the motorcycle speed exceeds 5 km/h (3 mph), the warning light switches OFF to indicate the correct operation of the ABS system.

Warning
In case of malfunction, do not ride the
motorcycle and contact a Ducati Dealer or authorised Service Centre.
ABS DEVICE
Check that the front (1) and rear (2) phonic wheels are clean.

Warning
Clogged reading slots would compromise
system proper operation. It is recommended to disable ABS system in case of muddy road surface because under this condition the system might be subject to sudden failure.

Warning
Prolonged wheelies could deactivate the ABS system.


Engine start

Warning
Before starting the engine, become familiar with the controls you will need to use when riding.

Warning
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.
Move the ignition switch to (1, Fig. 106). Make sure both the green light N and the red light 📋 on the instrument panel come on.

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

Warning
The side stand must be fully up (in a horizontal position) as its safety sensor prevents engine starting when down.


Note
It is possible to start the engine with side stand down and the gearbox in neutral. When starting the motorcycle with a gear engaged, pull the clutch lever (in this case the side stand must be up).
Turn switch (2, Fig. 107) to the O(RUN) position. Let the motorcycle start without operating the throttle control.

Note
If the battery is flat, system automatically
inhibits starter motor cranking operation.

Important
Do not rev up the engine when it is cold. Allow some time for oil to be heated and reach all points that need lubricating.

natural_image
Technical line drawing of a mechanical assembly with labeled component (no text or symbols beyond label)Moving off
1) Squeeze the control lever to disengage the clutch.
2) Push down on gear change lever sharply with the tip of your foot to engage the first gear.
3) Speed up the engine by turning the throttle twistgrip while gradually releasing the clutch lever; 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, proceed as follows: release the twistgrip, pull the clutch 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.
Warning Avoid bars
Avoid harsh 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.
Warning Prolonged
Prolonged wheelies could deactivate the ABS system.
Braking
Slow down in time, shift down to use engine brake and then brake by operating both front and rear brakes. Pull the clutch before the motorcycle stops to avoid engine from suddenly stalling.
Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS)
Using the brakes correctly under adverse conditions is the hardest – and yet the most critical - skill to master for a rider. Braking is one of the most difficult and dangerous moments when riding a two wheeled motorcycle: the possibility of falling or having an accident during this difficult moment is statistically higher than any other moment. A locked front wheel leads to loss of traction and stability, resulting in loss of control.
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) has been developed to enable riders to use the motorcycle braking force to the fullest possible amount in emergency braking or under poor pavement or adverse weather conditions.
ABS uses hydraulics and electronics to limit pressure in the brake circuit when a special sensor mounted to the wheel informs the electronic control unit that the wheel is about to lock up.
This avoids wheel lockup and preserves traction.
Pressure is raised back up immediately and the control unit keeps controlling the brake until the risk of a lockup disappears.
Normally, the rider will perceive ABS operation as a harder feel or a pulsation of the brake lever and pedal. The front and rear brakes use separate control systems, meaning that they operate independently. Likewise, the ABS is not an integral braking system and does not control both the front and rear brake at the same time.
If desired, the system can be deactivated from the instrument panel, using the "ABS control unit enabling/disabling" function (seepage 94).

Warning
When ABS is disabled, the motorcycle restores the standard brake system features; using the two brake controls separately reduces the motorcycle braking efficiency. Never use the brake controls harshly or suddenly as 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 tyres reduce braking efficiency, handling accuracy and stability in a bend.
Stopping the motorcycle
Reduce speed, shift down and release the throttle twistgrip.
Shift down to engage first gear and then neutral.
Stop the engine by pushing the switch (3) up.
Turn the vehicle key off by moving the key in position (2).

Important
Do not leave the key to ON, position (1), with engine off in order to avoid damaging any electrical components.


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

Warning
Use fuel with low lead content and an original octane number of at least 95.

Warning
The motorcycle is only compatible with fuel having a maximum content of ethanol of 10% (E10). Using fuel with ethanol content over 10% is forbidden. Using it could result in severe damage of the engine and motorcycle components. Using fuel with ethanol content over 10% will make the warranty null and void.

Parking
Stop the motorcycle, then put it on the side stand (page 147).
To prevent theft, turn the handlebar fully left and turn the ignition key to position (3).
If you park in a garage or other indoor area, make sure that there is proper ventilation and that the motorcycle is not near a source of heat.
If required, turn the key to position (4) to leave the parking lights on.

Important
Do not leave the key to position (4) for a long time, or this could lead to battery discharge. Never leave the ignition key in the switch when you are leaving your motorcycle unattended.

Warning
The exhaust system might be hot, even after engine is switched OFF; pay particular attention not to touch the exhaust system with any body part and do not park the motorcycle 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.

Main use and maintenance operations
Changing the air filter

Important
Have the air filter maintenance performed at a
Ducati Dealer or Authorised Service Centre.
Check brake fluid level
The level must not go below the MIN mark shown on the respective reservoirs (Fig. 113) shows the front brake fluid reservoir, while (Fig. 114) shows the rear brake fluid reservoir.
If level drops below the limit, air might get into the circuit and affect the operation of the system involved.
Fluid must be topped up and changed at the intervals specified in the scheduled maintenance table reported in the Warranty Booklet; please contact a Ducati Dealer or authorised Service Centre.
Brake system
If you find exceeding clearance on brake lever or pedal and brake pads are still in good condition, contact your Ducati Dealer or authorised Service Centre to have the system inspected and any air drained out of the circuit.



Warning
Brake fluid can damage paintwork and plastic parts, so avoid contact. Hydraulic fluid is corrosive; it may cause damage and lead to severe injuries. Never mix fluids of different qualities. Check seals for proper sealing.
Checking brake pads for wear
Check brake pads wear through the inspection hole in the callipers.
Change both pads if friction material thickness of even just one pad is about 1 mm (0.04 in).

Warning
Friction material wear beyond this limit would lead to metal support contact with the brake disc thus compromising braking efficiency, disc integrity and rider safety.

Important
Have the brake pads replaced at a Ducati Dealer or authorised Service Centre.

Note
The electric system of this model is designed so as to ensure there is a very low power drain when the motorcycle is OFF. Nevertheless, the battery features a certain self-discharge rate that is normal and depends on ambient conditions as well as on "non-use" time.

Important
If battery is not kept at a minimum charge level by a suitable battery charge maintainer, sulphation may occur and this is an irreversible phenomenon causing decreasing battery performance.

Note
When the motorcycle is left unused (approximately for more than 30 days). We recommend owners to use the Ducati battery charge maintainer (Battery maintainer kit part no. 69924601A - various countries; Battery maintainer kit part no. 69924601AX - for Japan, China and Australia only) since its electronics monitors the battery voltage and features a maximum charge current of 1.5 Ah. Connect the maintainer to the diagnostics socket located in the rear side of the motorcycle.

Note
Using charge maintainers not approved by Ducati could damage the electric system; motorcycle warranty does not cover the battery if damaged due to failure to comply with the above indications, since it is considered as wrong maintenance.
Lubricating cables and joints
It is necessary to periodically check the throttle control cable and cold start cable external sheath for wear. Their external plastic sheath should be free of cracking or flattening. Work the controls to make sure the cable slides smoothly inside the sheath: if you feel any friction or catching, have the cable replaced by a Ducati Dealer or Authorised Service Centre.
For trouble-free operation, periodically lubricate the ends of all Bowden cables with SHELL Advance Grease or Retinax LX2.
As far as the throttle cable is concerned, it is recommended to undo the two screws (1) and open the control, then grease the cable end and the pulley.


Warning
Carefully close the control after engaging the
cable in the pulley.
Refit the cover and tighten the screws (1) to a torque of 1.8 Nm.
To ensure trouble-free operation of the side stand joint, thoroughly clean it and then use SHELL Alvania R3 grease to lubricate all friction points.
Adjusting the throttle cable
The throttle grip must have a free play of 2 to 4 mm (0.08÷0.16 in) in all steering positions, measured on the outer edge of the twistgrip; this value is indicated in the figure as reference (A).
To adjust, work the relevant adjuster (1) located on the control itself.

Checking drive chain tension

Important
Have chain tension adjusted by a Ducati Dealer or authorised Service Centre.
Make the rear wheel turn until you find the position where chain is tightest. Set the motorcycle on the side stand. With just a finger, push down the chain at the point of measurement and release. With the chain in its rest position, measure the upward travel. It must be: A = 31 ÷ 33 mm (1.22 ÷ 1.30 in).

Important
This only applies to the motorcycle STANDARD settings, available upon delivery.

Important
If drive chain is too tight or slack, adjust tension so as to bring values back to the specified range.


Warning
Correct tightening of swinging arm screws (1) is critical to rider and passenger safety.

Important
Improper chain tension will lead to early wear of transmission parts.
Check the correspondence of the positioning marks on both sides of the swinging arm to ensure a perfect wheel alignment. Grease the wheel shaft nut thread (2) with SHELL Retinax HDX2 and tighten it to a torque of 145 Nm. Grease the adjuster screws (1) thread with SHELL Alvania R3 and tighten them to a torque of 10 Nm.

Lubricating the drive chain
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 with compressed air or wipe it with an absorbent material, then lubricate each link with SHELL Advance Chain or Advance Teflon Chain.

Important
Using non-specific lubricants may cause severe
damage to the chain and the front and rear sprockets.
Changing bulbs
Before replacing a burnt-out bulb, make sure that the new one matches the voltage and wattage specifications in paragraph "Electric System" page 210.

Important
Have the bulbs changed at a Ducati Dealer or authorised Service Centre.
Undo the screw (1) and detach the lens (2) from the turn indicator support.
The bulb has a bayonet joint: press and twist counter clockwise to remove it. Remove the bulb, then fit the new one by pressing and turning clockwise until it clicks into its seat. Refit the lens by inserting the tab in the corresponding slot in the turn indicator support. Tighten the screw (1).

Aligning the headlight
Check correct headlight aiming. Position the motorcycle 10 metres from a wall or a screen, the motorcycle must be perfectly upright with the tires inflated to the correct pressure and with a rider seated, perfectly perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. On the wall or surface, draw a horizontal line at the same height from the ground as the centre of the headlight and a vertical line aligned with the longitudinal axis of the motorcycle. If possible, perform this check in dim light. Switch on the low beam. The height of the upper limit between the dark area and the lit area must not be more than 9/10 of the height from the ground of the headlight centre.


Note
This is the procedure specified by Italian
regulations for checking the maximum height of the light beam. Please adapt said procedure to the provisions in force in your own country.
To vertically align the headlight beam, turn the screw (1).

Warning
The headlight might fog up if the motorcycle is used under the rain or after washing. Switch headlight on for a short time to dry up any condensate.

Adjusting the rear-view mirrors Manually adjust rear-view mirror (A) to required position.

Warning
This type of adjustment must be performed with attention to avoid forcing the rear-view mirror position and damaging it.

Should it prove difficult to perform the adjustment because the rear-view mirror is hard to move, it is possible to work on the relevant articulated joint. For this adjustment it is necessary to remove cover (1).
Slightly loosen the ball joint (2).
Refit the cover (1).

Tyres
Front tyre pressure:
2.3 bar (33 PSI) (rider only) - 2.5 bar (36 PSI) (rider and passenger).
Rear tyre pressure:
2.5 bar (36 PSI) (rider only) - 2.8 bar (41 PSI) (rider and passenger).
As tyre pressure is affected by ambient 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 tyre pressure by 0.2 ÷ 0.3 bar ( 2.9 ÷ 4.35 PSI).
TYRE REPAIR OR CHANGE
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
Punctured tyres must be replaced. Replace tyres with recommended standard tyres only. 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.

Warning
Do not remove or shift the wheel balancing weights.

Note
Have the tyres replaced at a Ducati Dealer or authorised Service Centre. Correct removal and installation of the wheels is essential. Some parts of the ABS (such as sensors and phonic wheels) are mounted to the wheels and require specific adjustment.
MINIMUM TREAD DEPTH
Measure tread depth (S) at the point where tread is most worn down: it should not be less than 2 mm (0.08 in), and in any case not less than the legal limit.

Important
Visually inspect the tyres at regular intervals for detecting 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.

Check engine oil level
Engine oil level can be checked through the sight glass (1) located onto clutch cover. Oil level must be checked with the motorcycle perfectly upright and the engine cold. Oil level should be between the marks on the sight glass. If the level is low, top up with engine oil.
Ducati recommends you use Shell Advance 4T Ultra 15W-50 oil (JASO: MA2 and API: SN).
Remove the oil filler cap (2) and top up until the oil reaches the required level. Refit the plug.

Important
Engine oil and oil filters must be changed by a Ducati Dealer or authorised Service Centre at the intervals specified in the scheduled maintenance chart reported in the Warranty Card.

Recommendations concerning oil
It is recommended to use oil complying with the following specifications:
- viscosity grade SAE 15W-50;
- standard API: SN;
- standard JASO: MA2.
SAE 15W-50 is an alphanumerical code identifying oil class based on viscosity: two figures with a W ("winter") in-between; the first figure indicates oil viscosity at low temperature; the second figure indicates its viscosity at high temperature. API (American standard) and JASO (Japanese standard) standards specify oil characteristics.
Cleaning and replacing the spark plugs
Spark plugs are essential to smooth engine running and should be checked at regular intervals.
Have the spark plug replaced by a Ducati Dealer or an authorised Service Centre.

natural_image
Technical line drawing of a spark plug (no text or symbols on the diagram itself)Cleaning the motorcycle
To preserve the finish of metal parts and paintwork, wash and clean your motorcycle at regular intervals, anyway according to road conditions. Use specific products only. Prefer biodegradable products. Avoid aggressive detergents or solvents.
Use only water and neutral soap to clean the Plexiglas and the seat. Periodically clean by hand all aluminium components. Use special detergents, suitable for aluminium parts. Do NOT use abrasive detergents or caustic soda.

Note
Do not use sponges with abrasive parts or steel wool: only use soft cloths.
However, the warranty does not apply to motorcycles whenever poor maintenance status is ascertained.

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 a high pressure water jet may lead to seizure or serious faults in forks, wheel hubs, electric system, headlight (fogging), fork seals, air inlets or exhaust silencers, with consequent loss of compliance with the safety requirements.
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 performance may be impaired
immediately after washing the motorcycle. Never grease or lubricate the brake discs to avoid losing braking power. Clean the discs with an oil-free solvent.

Warning
The headlight might fog up due to washing, rain or moisture. Switch headlight on for a short time to help and dry up any condensate.
Carefully clean the phonic wheels of the ABS in order to ensure system efficiency. Do not use aggressive products in order to avoid damaging the phonic wheels and the sensors.
Storing the motorcycle
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 the service stand;
- disconnect and remove the battery.
Battery should be checked and charged whenever the motorcycle has been left unridden for over a month. Protect the motorcycle with a suitable canvas. This will protect paintwork and let condensate breathe out. The canvas is available from Ducati Performance.
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.
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.
