 Attention
Using the two brake controls separately
reduces the motorcycle braking power.
Using just one of the two brake controls separately
means using the motorcycle braking power only
partially.
Never use the brake controls harshly or suddenly as
you may cause rear wheel lift-up 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 and overinflated tyres reduce braking
efficiency, handling accuracy and stability in a bend.

responsibly and to maintain a high standard of riding
in order to avoid accidents, whether caused by his
own errors or those of other road users, through
making emergency manoeuvres, in accordance with
the prescriptions of the road traffic code.

The rider must always be aware that active safety

systems have a preventive function. The active
elements help the rider control the motorcycle,
making it as easy and safe to ride as possible. The
presence of an active safety system should not
encourage the rider to ride at speeds beyond the
reasonable limits, not in accordance with the road
conditions, the laws of physics, good riding
standards and the requirements of the road traffic
code.

- The characteristics of the path/circuit (bend exit
with low or high gear engaged).

The choice of the correct level mainly depends on Tips for use on the road
the following parameters:

Activate the DWC, select level 8 and ride the
motorcycle in your usual style; if the level of DWC
sensitivity seems excessive, try levels 7, 6, etc., until
you find the one that suits you best. If changes occur
in the circuit characteristics, and the level setting is
no longer suitable, switch to the next level up or
down and proceed to determine the best setting
(e.g. if with level 7 the DWC intervention seems
excessive, switch to level 6; alternatively, if on level 7
you cannot perceive any DWC intervention, switch to
level 8).

This function is activated by pressing button (6).
When the Hazard function is active, all four turn
indicators blink at the same time as well as the
warning lights on the instrument panel (warning

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.

193
Keys
The motorcycle comes with 2 keys.
B
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.

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

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.

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.

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.

227
 Attention
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.

228
Stopping the motorcycle
2 1
Reduce speed, shift down and release the throttle
twistgrip.
Shift down to engage first gear and then neutral.
Apply the brakes and bring the motorcycle to a
complete stop.
To switch the engine off, simply turn the key to
position (2).

Important
Do not leave the key to ON, position (1), with
engine off in order to avoid damaging any electrical
components. Fig 187

Parking 3
Park the stopped motorcycle on the side stand. 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. You may leave the parking lights on
by turning the key to position (4).

Important
Do not leave the key to position (4) for a long 4
time, or this could lead to battery discharge. Never

Refuelling 1
Never overfill the tank when refuelling. Fuel should
never be touching the rim of filler recess (1).
Warning
The fuel pressure inside the tank may, in extreme
cases, cause fuel to “spray” when opening the fuel
cap.
Always open the fuel cap slowly and carefully during
the refill.
If you hear an audible hiss from the cap while
opening it, wait until the stop of the hissing before
opening it completely. Fig 189
The sound is residual pressure escaping from the

fuel tank, therefore the stop of the hiss indicates
that there is no more residual pressure.
The situation described above is more likely in hot
weather conditions.

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

246
Lubricating the drive chain

Important
Have drive chain cleaned by a Ducati Dealer or
authorised Service Centre.

Cleaning and lubricating the drive chain

The chain fitted on your motorcycle has O-rings that
keep dirt out of and lubricant inside the sliding parts.
Before proceeding with the chain lubrication it is
important to correctly wash and clean it.
The chain cleaning is extremely important for its
duration. In fact, it is necessary to remove any mud,
soil, sand or dirt from the chain using a jet of water
and then dry it immediately using compressed air at
a distance of at least 30 cm (11.81 in).

247
 Attention
Avoid the use of steam, fuel, solvents, hard
brushes or other methods that could damage the O-
rings; also avoid direct contact with the battery acid
as it could cause mini cracks in the links as shown in
the figure.

Attention
In particular, in case of Off-Road use of the
bike, it is possible that excessive wear of the links Fig 206
occurs due to the contact with the chain sliding shoe;
friction could in fact cause the chain to overheat,
altering the heat treatment of the links and making
them particularly fragile.

248
Lubricating the drive chain

Important
Have drive chain cleaned by a Ducati Dealer or
authorised Service Centre.

Attention
Use SHELL Advance Chain to lubricate the
chain; the use of non-specific lubricants could
damage the O-rings and therefore the entire drive
system.

It is recommendable to lubricate the chain without Fig 207

waiting for it to cool down after using the
motorcycle, so that the new lubricant can penetrate
better between the inner and outer links and be
more effective in its protective action.
Place the bike on the rear paddock stand. Make the
rear wheel turns fast in the opposite direction to the
direction of travel.

249
Apply the lubricant jet (1) inside the chain between
the inner and outer links, in point (2) immediately
before the engagement point on the sprocket.
Due to the centrifugal force, the lubricant, made
fluid by the solvents contained in the spray, will
expand in the working area between the pin and the
bush, ensuring perfect lubrication.
Repeat the operation by aiming the lubricant jet to 2
the central part (5) of the chain so as to lubricate the
rollers (4), and to the outer plates (6) as shown in the 1
figure.
Fig 208

5

Fig 209

250
After lubrication, wait 10-15 minutes to allow the
lubricant to act on the internal and external surfaces
of the chain and then remove the excess lubricant
with a clean cloth.

Important
Do not use the motorcycle immediately after
lubricating the chain as the lubricant, still fluid,
would be centrifuged outwards causing possible
soiling of the rear tyre or the rider's footpeg.

Important
Fig 210
Check the chain often, taking care to lubricate
it, as also indicated in the table below: at least every
1000 km (621 mi) or more frequently (about every
400 km (248 mi)) when using the bike with high
outside temperatures (40°C) or after long travels on
the highway at high speed.

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.
