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 grabhandles under the seat with both hands. Obey the legal requirements and observe national and local regulations. Always respect speed limits where these are indicated. However, always adapt your speed to suit the current visibility, road and traffic conditions. Always signal your intention to turn or change lane in good time, using the appropriate turn signal indicators. 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 exhaust system with any body part 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 390 kg.

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 54 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).

Warning

Any adjustments to the instrument panel must only be carried out when the motorcycle is stationary. Never operate the instrument panel controls while riding the motorcycle.

Automatic headlight switch-off function

This function helps reduce battery use by automatically switching off the headlight. The device is triggered in two cases:

- in the first case, if you turn the key from OFF to ON but do not start the engine, After 60 seconds the headlight will be switched off and will only be switched on the next time the key is turned from OFF to ON or the engine is started.

- in the second case, after normal use of the motorcycle with the lights on, if the engine is killed using the ENGINE STOP switch (1, fig. 14.1). In this case, 60 seconds after the engine is stopped, the headlight will be turned off and will only be turned on again the next time the engine is started.

Notes

Also during engine starting, the system turns the headlight off and turns it back on once the engine has started.

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 handgrip 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. 7)

The owner receives a set of keys, comprising:

- 1 key A (RED) The red key is a service tool and is part of the motorcycle’s immobilizer system. It contains the code of the immobilizer system and should not be used for normal everyday use of your motorcycle. Your dealer may ask you to produce the red key in order to carry out certain service operations. For security reasons, the red key cannot be replaced. In cases where the red key is required for servicing purposes and the owner is unable to produce it, it will be necessary to renew the motorcycle’s electronic control unit, instrument panel and ignition switch assembly, and the cost of these operations will be met by the owner. It is therefore important to keep the red key in a safe place.

- 2 keys B (BLACK)

Warning

The red key (A) has a rubber sleeve to keep it in perfect condition and to prevent contact with other keys. Never remove this protection unless absolutely necessary.

The B keys are the keys for normal use, and are used to:

- start the engine;

- open the lock on the fuel tank filler plug;

- open the seat lock. The A key performs all the same functions as the B keys and it can also be used to reset and re-program other black keys if necessary.

fig. 7

Notes

The three keys are supplied attached to a small tag

(1, fig. 7) bearing their identification number.

Warning

Keep the keys separate, and store the tag (1, fig. 7) and key A in a safe place. It is also advisable to use only one of the black keys to start the motorcycle.

Code card

The keys come with a CODE CARD (fig. 8), which shows: the electronic code (A, fig. 9) to be used if the engine is locked, and if the engine fails to start when the key is at On.

Warning

Keep the CODE CARD in a safe place. It is advisable to always carry the electronic code shown on the CODE CARD with you when using the motorcycle, in case it is necessary to override the engine immobilizer by means of the procedure that uses the throttle twistgrip. In the event of faults in the immobilizer system, the following procedure makes it possible to disable the “engine lock” function, which is indicated by the yellow-amber EOBD warning light (7, fig. 4.1). This operation is only possible with the electronic code shown on the code card.

fig. 8

fig. 9

Procedure to override the immobilizer using the throttle twistgrip

1) Turn the key to ON, fully open the throttle and hold it open. The EOBD warning light (7, fig. 4.1) will go off after the pre-set time of 8 seconds.

2) Release the throttle as soon as the EOBD warning light turns off.

3) Now enter the electronic release code shown on the CODE CARD given to the customer when the motorcycle was handed over by the dealer. The EOBD warning light will light up and start flashing. Count the number of flashes of the EOBD (7, fig. 4.1) light equal to the first number of the secret code. Turn the throttle twistgrip to the fully open position: the digit entered is acknowledged, and the EOBD warning light comes on and stays on for the pre-set time of 4 seconds. If no operation is performed with the throttle twistgrip, the EOBD light will flash 20 times and then illuminate steadily. In this case, repeat the procedure from step (1).

4) Release the throttle as soon as the EOBD warning light turns off.

5) Repeat the operations in steps 3 and 4 until the last digit has been entered.

6) When you release the throttle, if the code was entered correctly, the EOBD light will flash to indicate that the engine is unlocked. The EOBD light returns to its normal state (off) after 4 seconds. If the code was NOT entered correctly, the EOBD light will remain lit and the procedure can be repeated as many times as necessary by turning the key to OFF, then re-starting from step (1).

Notes

If you release the twistgrip too soon, the warning light comes on again. Return the ignition key to OFF and repeat the procedure from step 1.

Operation

When the ignition key is turned from ON to OFF, the immobilizer system activates the engine lock. When the ignition key is turned from OFF to ON to start the engine: if the code is recognised, the warning light (6, fig. 4.1) on the instrument panel will flash briefly. This means that the immobilizer system has recognised the code and disabled the engine lock. When you press the START (3, fig. 14.1) button, the engine will start up.

2) If either the warning light (6, fig. 4.1) or the EOBD light (7, fig. 4.1) remain lit, the code has not been recognized. In this case, it is advisable to turn the ignition key back to OFF and then to ON again. If the engine still does not start, try using another black key. If the engine still does not start, contact the DUCATI Service network. If the warning light (6, fig. 4.1) keeps flashing, it means that an error signal from the immobilizer system has been cleared (e.g. with the override procedure using the throttle twistgrip). Turn the key to OFF and back to ON; the immobilizer light should return to its normal state (see step 1).

Warning

Sharp knocks can damage the electronic components inside the key. Always use the same key during the procedure. The use of different keys could prevent the system from recognizing the code in the inserted 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. DUCATI Service will program new keys and re-program your original keys, up to a maximum of 8 keys. DUCATI Service may ask for 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, it is essential to transfer

all keys and the CODE CARD to the new owner.

Ignition switch and steering lock (fig. 10)

This is located in front of the fuel tank and has four positions: A) ON: enables lights and engine operation;

B) OFF: disables lights and engine operation; C) LOCK: the steering is locked; D) P: sidelight and steering lock.

Notes

Clutch lever (fig. 12)

When the clutch lever (1) is operated, drive from the engine to the gearbox and the rear wheel is disengaged. Correct use of the clutch lever is very important in all riding situations, especially when moving off.

Important

Using the clutch properly will prolong the life of the engine and prevent any damage to components in the transmission.

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).

fig. 12

Cold start lever (fig. 13)

The cold start lever is used to assist starting from cold and to raise the idle speed after starting. Lever positions:

A) = lever not activated; B) = lever fully applied. The lever can be placed in intermediate positions to help the engine warm up gradually (see page 36).

Important

Never use the cold start lever when the engine is warm. Do not ride the motorcycle with the cold start lever activated.

fig. 13

Right-hand handlebar switch (fig. 14.1)

1) Two-position ENGINE STOP switch: position (RUN) = run; position (OFF) = stop engine.

Warning

This switch is mainly intended for use in

emergencies when you need to stop the engine quickly.

After stopping the engine, return the switch to the position

to enable starting.

Important

Travelling with the headlight, switching off the engine with switch (1) and leaving the ignition key in the ON position can drain the battery, as the headlight remains on.

2) Button = engine start.
