Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A. advises you to read this manual carefully in order to familiarise yourself with your motorcycle. If in doubt, please contact a Ducati Dealer or Authorized Service Centre. You will find the information in the manual useful on trips (which Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A. hopes will be smooth and enjoyable), and it will help you obtain top performance from your motorcycle for a long time. This booklet uses a set of symbols with special meanings:
Warranty
In your own interest, and in order to ensure the reliability of the motorcycle, you are strongly advised to contact a Ducati Dealer or Authorized Service Centre for any servicing that requires particular technical expertise. Our highly qualified staff have access to the specialised tools required to perform any servicing job to the highest professional standards, using only Ducati original spare parts as the best guarantee for perfect interchangeability, smooth running and long service life.
All Ducati motorcycles come with a Warranty Booklet. However, the warranty does not apply to motorcycles used in competitions. If any motorcycle part is tampered with, modified, or replaced with parts other than original Ducati spare parts during the warranty period, the warranty is automatically invalidated.

Warning
Failure to comply with these instructions may put you
at risk, and could lead to severe injury or even death.
Important
Risk of damage to the motorcycle and/or its
components.

Useful road safety information
Warning
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 handlebars firmly with both hands so you will be ready for sudden changes in direction or in the road surface. The pillion 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 parti cular 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 parks, or on the slip roads to 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, 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 if leaving your motorcycle unattended. The engine, exhaust pipes and silencers remain hot for a long time.
Warning
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.
E

Riding with a full load
Your motorcycle is designed for travelling over long
E
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 390 kg.
8
Arrange your luggage or heavy accessories in the lowest possible position and as close to centre of the motorcycle as possible. Secure the luggage firmly 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.

function to “On” by pressing switch (1, fig. 8) in position B “▼“ for 3 seconds. START and STOP the timer by pressing the high beam flasher switch (12, fig. 5) on the left-hand handlebar switch. When the LAP function is active, each time you press the flasher switch, the display will show the lap time for 10 seconds, before reverting to normal mode. You can save a maximum of 30 laps in the memory. If the memory is full, each time you press the flasher switch, the display will not save any more lap times and will display the flashing message “FULL” for 3 seconds until the memory is reset.
26
fig. 18
When you switch the LAP function off from the menu, the lap in progress will not be saved. If the LAP function is active and the display is suddenly switched off (Key-Off), the LAP function is switched off automatically (even if the timer was ON, the lap in progress is not saved). If the timer is not stopped, when it reaches 99 minutes, 59 seconds and 99 hundredths of a second, it restarts from 0 (zero) and continues until the function is switched off. If, however, the LAP function is switched on and the memory has not been cleared, but fewer than 30 laps have been saved (e.g. 18 laps), the display will save any remaining laps until the memory is saturated (in this case, it will save a further 12 laps). In this function, lap time only is displayed, but other data are also saved (MAX speed, MAX rpm, rev limiter if reached) for viewing at a later date in the Lap Memory function.

lap. If you press switch (1, fig. 8) in position B “▼“ for 3 seconds while the saved times are displayed, the display immediately resets all the saved times. In this case, if the LAP function was active, it is switched off automatically. The MAX speed saved is the maximum speed indicated on the display in Lap function. During saving, if the MAX speed shown exceeds 299 km/h (186 mph), the speed reached is displayed (e.g. 316 km/h). If there is no reading in the memory, the 30 times are shown, with the lap timer showing “00.00.00”, MAX rpm = 0 and MAX speed = 0. During the lap, if the engine reaches one of the two thresholds before the rev limiter or the rev limiter itself, the respective warning lights (10, fig. 4) come on during the display of the saved times.
