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
7
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.

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 turned 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 headlight 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-Off). 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 “”, the instrument panel will activate the headlight for 30 seconds; each press of switch (1, fig. 8) in position B “” will add to the headlight activation time, up to a 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 B “”, 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 30 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 restored, the instrument panel will de-activate the function (the instrument panel does not remain active for 60 seconds).

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
(fig. 24)
The owner receives a set of keys, comprising:
- 2 black keys (B). These contain the “code” of the immobilizer system.
Notes
The two keys have a small tag (1) attached, which
shows their identification number.
Notes
Your Ducati dealer may ask you to produce your Code
Card in order to carry out certain servicing operations.
The black keys (B) are the keys for normal use, and are used to:
- start the engine;
- open the lock on the fuel tank filler cap;
- open the seat lock.

Warning
Keep the keys separate, and store the tags (1) in a safe place. It is 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 turned to ON.
E
Warning
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.
Warning
Your dealer will ask you to produce the Code Card in order to re-program or replace a key.

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 B “”, the number increases cyclically in steps of one digit every second; if you press the switch in position A “”, you can set the second digit, which will start flashing. Each time you press the switch in position B “”, the number increases cyclically in steps of one digit every second; if you press the switch in position A “”, you can set the third digit, which will start flashing. Each time you press the switch in position B “”, the number increases cyclically in steps of one digit every second; if you press the switch in position A “”, you can set the fourth digit, which will start flashing. Each time you press the switch in position B “”, the number increases cyclically in steps of one digit every second; if you press the switch in position A “”, you can set the fifth digit, which will start flashing. Each time you press the switch in position B “”, the number increases cyclically in steps of one digit every second; press in position A “” to confirm the code.
If the code has been entered correctly, 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. If the error persists, at the next key-on, the instrument panel will return to an error state and immobilize the engine. If instead the code has been entered incorrectly, the instrument panel will automatically return to the “CODE” menu and display the code “00000”.

41
Operation
When the ignition key is turned from ON to OFF, the
E
immobilizer 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 “” 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.
Warning
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 recognising the code in the key.
42
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.

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.

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 (turned fully clockwise), unscrew: 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.

Once the desired spring preload has been set, re-tighten the upper lock nut.
E
Warning
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 turning.
Warning
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 possibility of ground contact. It may also be necessary to adjust the rebound damping accordingly.

Riding the motorcycle
Running-in precautions
Max. rpm (fig. 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 5500-6000 rpm. During the first hours of riding, it is advisable to continuously vary the load on the engine and the rpm, though still 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 a correct break-in of friction material on brake pads against brake discs.
To allow all the mechanical moving parts in the motorcycle to adapt to one another, and to avoid shortening the life of the main engine components, it is advisable to avoid sudden acceleration and running the engine at high rpm for too long, especially uphill. It is also advisable to check the drive chain frequently and ensure that it is lubricated as required.
E
59
From 1000 to 2500 km
At this point, you can ask for more power from the engine,
E
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-tuning.

Pre-ride checks
Warning
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 coolant 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, throttle and gear change controls (levers, pedals and twistgrip) to check that they function correctly.
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 52) and the seat are locked (page 53).
Sidestand
Make sure the sidestand operates smoothly and is in the correct position (page 54).
Warning
If there are any faults or malfunctions, do not start the motorcycle and contact your DUCATI Dealer or Authorized Service Centre.

61
Starting the engine
E
Warning
Before starting the engine, familiarise yourself with
the controls that you will use when riding (page 10).
Warning
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 on the instrument panel come on.
A
B
C
D
fig. 46
Important
The oil pressure warning light should go out a few seconds after the engine has started (page 11).
Warning
The sidestand should be in rest position (horizontal), otherwise the safety sensor prevents the engine starting.
62
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).
2) Check that the stop switch (2, fig. 47) is positioned to (RUN), then press the starter button (3, fig. 47).
Important
Do not rev the engine when cold. Allow some time for
the oil to warm up and reach all points that need lubricating.

63
Moving off
1) Disengage the clutch by squeezing the clutch lever.
E
2) Push down the gearchange lever firmly 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 snat ching. The clutch lever should not be held in longer than necessary after a gear is engaged, otherwise friction parts may overheat and wear out.
64
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.
Warning
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 motorcycle. 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 intermittently for brief periods only. Keeping the brakes applied continuously causes the friction material to overheat and dangerously reduces braking effectiveness. Under-inflated 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 turning 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 a source of heat. If necessary, you can leave the sidelights on by turning the key to position P.
Important
Do not leave the key at P for long periods or the
battery will run down. Never leave the motorcycle unattended with the ignition key inserted.
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.).
Warning
Using padlocks or other locks designed to prevent movement of the motorcycle (such as brake disc locks, rear sprocket locks, and so on) is very dangerous, and may impair motorcycle operation and the safety of rider and passenger.
E
65
Refuelling (fig. 48)
Do not overfill the tank when refuelling. The fuel level should

Checking and topping up the coolant
E
(fig. 55)
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

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.
Important
It is 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.
Warning
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.
E
fig. 56
73
Clutch system
If there is too much play at the clutch lever and the
E
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.
Warning
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).
74
fig. 57
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. If the grooves in the pad friction material are still visible, the pad is still in good condition.
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
E
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.
Warning
Close the twistgrip housing carefully, inserting the cable in the race.
Refit the housing and tighten the bolts (1) to 10 Nm.
To ensure smooth operation of the sidestand pivot, remove dirt and apply SHELL Alvania R3 grease to all friction points.

In all handlebar 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 (fig. 62)
Before charging the battery, it is best to remove it from the
E
motorcycle. Remove the left-hand side fairing (page 68), unscrew the bolt (1) and remove the mounting bracket (2). Always disconnect the black negative terminal (-) first, and then the red positive terminal (+).
Warning
The battery produces explosive gases: keep it away from heat sources and flames.
Charge the battery in a well-ventilated 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 bolts to improve conductivity and fasten the bracket (2) with the bolt (1).

Checking the chain tension (fig. 63)
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.
Warning
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.
Important
Using non-specific lubricants may cause severe
damage to the chain and the front and rear sprocket.

Headlight aim (fig. 69)
To check the headlight aim, place the motorcycle upright
E
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.
Notes
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.

Tubeless tyres
Front tyre pressure:
E
2.1 bar - 2.3 kg/cm Rear tyre pressure:
2.2 bar -2.4 kg/cm 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 adjust 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.
86
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 slightly deflated, check the tyre for slow punctures.
Warning
Punctured 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.
Important
Do not remove or alter the position of the wheel balancing weights.
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. It should not be less than 2 mm, and in any case not less 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 badly damaged. Remove any stones or other foreign bodies stuck in the tread.

Checking the engine oil level (fig. 73)
Check the engine oil level through the sight glass (1) on the
E
clutch-side crankcase cover. When checking oil level, the motorcycle should be perfectly upright and the engine cold. The oil 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.

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.
E
2-0,8 ÷ 0,1 mm
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.

General cleaning
To preserve the original shine on metal surfaces and
E
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.
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 high­pressure water jets. Cleaning the motorcycle with a high­pressure water jet may lead to seizure or serious faults in the front fork, wheel hub assembly, electrical system, front fork seals, air inlets or exhaust silencers, with consequent 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.
90
Warning
There 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
If the 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 oil into the cylinders through the spark plug bores, then turn the engine over by hand a few times to form a protective film of oil 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.
