During the ride, assume a correct body position and
make sure the passenger does the same.
Important
The rider should ALWAYS keep both hands on
the handlebar.
Important
Both rider and passenger should keep their feet
on the footpegs when the motorcycle is in motion.
Important
The passenger should always hold on to the
strap on passenger seat with both hands.
Important
Be very careful when maneuvering
intersections or when riding in areas near exits from
private grounds, parking lots or access roads to
highways.
Important
Be sure you are clearly visible and do not ride in
the blind spot of the vehicles ahead.
Important
ALWAYS signal your intention to turn or pull
over to the next lane with due warning using the turn
indicators.
Important
Park your motorcycle where no one is likely to
hit it, and use the side stand.
Never park on uneven or soft ground or your
motorcycle may fall over.
Important
Visually inspect the tires at regular intervals for
cracks and cuts, especially on sidewalls, bulges or
large spots which are indicative of internal damage.
Replace them if badly damaged.
Remove any stones or other foreign bodies caught in
the tread.
13
Warning
The engine, exhaust pipes and mufflers stay hot
for a long time after the engine has been turned off.
Be especially careful not to touch the exhaust system
with any part of the body and never park the
motorcycle near flammable materials (wood, leaves,
etc.).
Warning
When you leave the motorcycle unattended,
always remove the ignition key and make sure it is
inaccessible to anyone unsuitable to ride the
motorcycle.
14
Refueling
Refuel the motorcycle in an open area and with the
engine switched off.
Do not smoke or ever use flames during refueling.
Be careful never to drop fuel on the engine or
exhaust pipe.
When refueling, do not fill the tank completely: fuel
should never be touching the rim of filler recess.
When refueling, avoid inhaling fuel vapors and take
care that they do not come in contact with eyes, skin
or clothing.
Warning
The vehicle is compatible only with fuel having
a maximum ethanol content of 10% (E10). Using
fuels with ethanol content over 10% is prohibited.
Using them could result in severe damage of the
engine and motorcycle components. Using fuel with
ethanol content over 10% will render the Warranty
null and void.
Warning
In case of malaise caused by prolonged
inhalation of fuel vapors, stay outdoors and consult a
physician. In case of contact with eyes, rinse eyes
thoroughly with water. In case of contact with skin,
wash the area immediately with soap and water.
Warning
Fuel is highly flammable. If it accidentally spills
onto clothes, change them.
Carrying the maximum load allowed
Your motorcycle is designed for long-distance riding
with the maximum load allowed carried in full safety.
Even weight distribution is critical to preserving these
safety features and avoiding difficulties when
performing sudden maneuvers or riding on bumpy
roads.
Warning
Do not exceed the total permitted weight for
the motorcycle and pay attention to the information
below regarding load capacity.
Information about carrying capacity
Important
Arrange your luggage or heavy accessories in
the lowest possible position and close to motorcycle
center.
Important
Never fix bulky or heavy objects to the steering
head or front mudguard, as this would affect stability
and be dangerous.
15
Important
Be sure to secure the luggage to the supports
provided on the motorcycle as firmly as possible.
Improperly secured luggage may affect stability.
Important
Do not insert any objects you may need to carry
into the gaps of the frame, as these may interfere
with moving parts.
Warning
Make sure tires are inflated to the correct
pressure indicated at page 234 and that they are in
good condition.
16
Dangerous products - warnings
Used engine oil
Warning
Prolonged or repeated contact with used engine
oil may cause skin cancer. If exposed to used engine
oil on a daily basis, make it a rule to wash your hands
thoroughly with soap immediately after use. Keep
away from children.
Brake lining debris
Never attempt to clean the brake assembly using
compressed air or a dry brush.
Brake fluid
Warning
Avoid spilling brake fluid onto plastic, rubber or
painted parts of the motorcycle to avoid the risk of
damage. Protect these parts with a clean shop rag
before servicing the motorcycle. Keep away from
children.
Warning
The brake fluid used in the brake system is
corrosive. In the event of accidental contact with
eyes or skin, wash the affected area with generous
quantities of running water.
Coolant
Engine coolant contains ethylene glycol, which may
ignite under particular conditions, producing invisible
flames. Although the flames from burning ethylene
glycol are not visible, they are still capable of causing
severe burns.
Warning
Take care not to spill engine coolant on the
exhaust system or engine parts. These parts may be
hot and ignite the coolant, which will subsequently
burn with invisible flames.
Coolant (ethylene glycol) is an irritant and is
poisonous when ingested. Keep away from children.
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is
hot. The coolant will be scalding hot and is under high
pressure.
The cooling fan operates automatically: keep hands
well clear and make sure your clothing does not get
caught in the fan.
Battery
Warning
The battery gives off explosive gases; keep it
away from any source of ignition such as sparks,
flames and cigarettes. Charge the battery in a wellventilated area.

Noise and exhaust emission control system information
combustion chamber through the air cleaner and the
throttle body.
Source of Emissions
The combustion process produces carbon monoxide
and hydrocarbons. Control of hydrocarbons is very
important because under certain conditions, they
react to form photochemical smog when subjected
to sunlight.
Carbon monoxide does not react in the same way,
but is toxic. Ducati utilizes lean carburetor settings
and other systems to reduce carbon monoxide and
hydrocarbons.
Exhaust Emission Control System
Exhaust Emission Control System is controlled by an
Electronic Control Unit (ECU), and no adjustments
should be made except idle speed adjustments with
the throttle stop screw. The Exhaust Emission
Control System is separate from the crankcase
emission control system.
Crankcase Emission Control System
The engine is equipped with a closed crankcase
system to prevent discharging crankcase emissions
into the atmosphere. Blow-by gas is returned to the
26
Evaporative Emission Control System
The motorcycles are equipped with an evaporative
emission control system which consists of a charcoal
canister and associated piping. This system prevents
the escape of fuel vapors from the engine and fuel
tank.
Problems that may affect motorcycle
emissions
If you are aware of any of the following symptoms,
have the vehicle inspected and repaired by your local
Ducati dealer.
Symptoms:
Hard starting or stalling after starting.
Rough idle.
Misfiring or backfiring during acceleration.
After-burning (backfiring).
Poor performance (drivability) and poor economy.
