GENERAL E Warranty In your own interest, and in order to guarantee product reliability, you are strongly advised to refer to our authorized Dealers and workshops for any servicing requiring particular technical expertise. Our highly skilled staff have access to the implements required to perform any servicing job at best, and use Ducati original spare parts only as the best guarantee for full interchangeability, smooth running and long life. All Ducati motorcycles come with a “Warranty Card”.
Useful information for safe riding Warning Read this section before riding your motorcycle. Accidents are frequently due to inexperience. Always make sure you have your licence with you when riding; you need a valid licence to be entitled to ride your motorcycle. Do not lend your motorcycle to inexperienced riders or who do not hold a valid licence. Both rider and pillion passenger must always wear a safety helmet.
Carrying the maximum load allowed Your motorcycle is designed for long-distance riding, carrying the maximum load allowed in full safety. Even weight distribution is critical to preserving these safety features and avoiding trouble when performing sudden manoeuvres or riding on bumpy roads. E Information about carrying capacity The total weight of the motorcycle in running order including rider, pillion passenger, luggage and additional accessories should not exceed 390 Kg.
Identification data All Ducati motorcycles have two identification numbers, for frame (fig. 1.1) and engine (fig. 1.2). Frame number Engine number Note These numbers identify the motorcycle model and should always be indicated when ordering spare parts. E fig. 1.1 fig. 1.
CONTROLS 1 4 8 7 E Warning This section details the position and function of all the controls you need to drive your motorcycle. Be sure to read this information carefully before you use the controls. 3 6 5 2 Position of motorcycle controls (fig. 2) 1) Instrument panel. 2) Key-operated ignition switch and steering lock. 3) Left switch. 4) Clutch lever. 5) Fast-idle lever. 6) Right switch. 7) Throttle twistgrip. 8) Front brake lever. 9) Gear change pedal. 10) Rear brake pedal. 9 10 fig.

Gives distance covered since last resetting. c) Trip meter resetting knob. Turn to reset trip meter to “0000”. 2) Green light N. Comes on when gearbox is in neutral. 3) Yellow light . Comes on when there are about 3.5 liters fuel left in the tank. 4) Green light . Comes on and flashes when a turn indicator is on. 5) Red light .
E The immobilizer system For improved anti-theft protection, the motorcycle is equipped with an IMMOBILIZER, an electronic system that inhibits engine operation whenever the ignition switch is turned off. Accommodated in the handgrip of each ignition key is an electronic device that modulates an output signal. This signal is generated by a special antenna incorporated in the switch when the ignition is turned on and changes every time.
Code card The keys come with a CODE CARD that reports: A) (fig. 4.3) the electronic code to be used to start the engine in the event of an emergency; B) (fig. 4.3) the part no. code for the keys to be reported to the DUCATI Service network when you are ordering any duplicate keys. E Important Keep the CODE CARD in a safe place.
E Operation When the ignition key is turned to OFF, the immobilizer inhibits engine operation. When the ignition key is turned back to ON to start the engine, the following happens: 1) if the CPU recognised the code, the CODE light on the instrument panel will flash briefly. This means that the immobilizer system has recognised the key code and enabled engine ignition. When you press the START button, the engine will start up. 2) If the CODE light stays on, it means that the code has not been recognised.
Ignition switch and steering lock (fig. 5) It is located in front of the fuel tank and has four positions: A) ON: lights and engine on; B) OFF: lights and engine off; C) LOCK: steering lock; D) P: parking lights and steering lock. Warning This vehicle is equipped with an energy-saving CPU. If the key stays ON for a long period but the ignition button is not pressed within 15 seconds, the CPU will stop operating to avoid current absorption. Move the key to OFF and then to ON again.

E Closing Refit the plug with the key in it and push it down into its seat. Turn the key anticlockwise to its initial position and take it out. Close the lock protection lid (1). Note The plug can only be closed with the key in. Warning Always make sure you have properly refitted (see page 33) and closed the plug after each refueling.
Seat catch and helmet pin Opening Fit the ignition key into the lock. Turn the key clockwise to detach seat from frame. Pull the seat backwards to slide it off its front holders. On the rear end of the compartment underneath the seat, there is the helmet fastening cable (1) (see page 35). Insert the cable into the helmet, slide the end of the cable onto the pin (2). Leave helmet hanging outside and refit the seat. Warning This system is intended to lock your helmet safely when you park your motorcycle.
Side stand (fig. 15) Important Before lowering the side stand, make sure that the bearing surface is hard and flat. E Do not park on soft or pebbled ground or on asphalt melt by the sun heat and similar or the motorcycle may fall over. When parking in downhill road tracts, always park the motorcycle with its rear wheel facing downhill. To pull down the side stand, hold the motorcycle handlebar with both hands and push down on the stand (1) with your feet until it is fully extended.
Shock absorber adjusters (fig. 16) The shock absorber has outer adjusters that enable you to adjust your motorcycle to the load. The adjuster (1) located on the right side, on the connection holding the shock absorber to the swingarm, controls rebound damping. The adjuster (2) on the shock absorber expansion reservoir controls compression damping. Turn the adjusters (1 and 2) clockwise to increase damping, anticlockwise to reduce it.
When carrying a passenger and a load, set the rear shock absorber spring to maximum preload to improve motorcycle handling and keep safe clearance from the ground. You may find that rebound damping needs readjusting. Front fork adjusters The front fork of 900S models has rebound and compression damping adjusters. This adjustment is done using the outer adjusters: 1) (fig. 17) to adjust rebound damping; 2) (fig. 17) to adjust spring preload; 3) (fig. 18) to adjust compression damping.
Standard factory setting is as follows: compression: 12 clicks; rebound: 11 clicks. The max. setting range is 14 clicks (rebound) and 14 clicks (compression) that ensure the softest damping. 1 2 A To change the preload of the spring inside each fork leg, turn the adjusting nut (2) with a 22-mm hexagon wrench. Preload setting range (A) is from 25 to 10 mm Factory setting is 16 mm. E Important Adjust both fork legs to same settings. fig. 17 3 fig.
E DIRECTIONS FOR USE For all mechanical parts of the motorcycle to adapt to one another and above all not to adversely affect the life of basic engine parts, it is advisable to avoid harsh accelerations and not to run the engine at high rpm for too long, especially uphill. Furthermore, the drive chain should be inspected frequently. Lubricate it as required.
Pre-ride checks Brake and clutch fluid Check fluid level in the relevant reservoirs. Tyre condition Check tyre pressure and condition (page 48). Controls Work the brake, clutch, throttle and gear change controls (levers, pedals and twistgrips) and check for proper operation. Lights and indicators Make sure lights, indicators and horn work properly. Replace any burnt-out bulbs (page 44). Key-operated locks Check that fuel filler plug and seat catch locks are closed firmly.
Starting the engine Note Follow the “High ambient temperature” procedure to start the engine when it is warm. E Warning Before starting the engine, become familiar with the controls you will need to use when riding. Never start or run the engine indoors. Exhaust gases are poisonous and may lead to loss of consciousness or even death within a short time. Regular ambient temperature (10 to 35° C): 1) Move the ignition key to ON (fig. 20).
High ambient temperature (over 35° C): Follow the same procedure, however, do not use the fast-idle device. A Cold ambient temperature (below 10° C): Follow the procedure for “Regular ambient temperature”, however allow 5 minutes for the engine to warm up (step 5). B E fig. 21.1 1 2 fig. 20 fig. 21.
E Moving off 1) Disengage the clutch squeezing the control lever. 2) Push down on gear change lever sharply with the tip of your foot to engage the first gear. 3) Speed up engine, by turning the throttle twistgrip and slightly releasing the clutch lever at the same time. The motorcycle will start moving off. 4) Let go of clutch lever and speed up. 5) To shift to second gear, close the throttle to slow down engine, disengage the clutch right away, lift the gear change lever and let go of clutch lever.
Stopping the motorcycle Slow down gradually, then shift down and release the throttle twistgrip. Finally change from first to neutral. Apply brakes and you will bring the motorcycle to a complete stop. To switch the engine off, simply turn the key to OFF (fig. 22). Refueling Never overfill the tank when refueling. Fuel should never be touching the rim of filler recess (fig. 23). Warning Be sure there is no fuel trapped in the filler recess.
E Parking Stop the motorcycle, then put it on the side stand to park it (see page 24). To avoid theft, turn the handlebar fully left and turn the key to LOCK position. If you park in a garage or other facilities, make sure that there is proper ventilation and that the motorcycle is not near a source of heat or sparks. If nedeed, you may leave the parking lights on by turning the key to position P (fig. 24). Important Do not leave the key turned to P for long periods or the battery will run down.
Tool kit and accessories (fig. 25.1) The compartment under the seat holds: an Owner’s manual; a helmet fastening cable; a tool bag for normal maintenance and checks to be performed by the user. To reach this compartment, remove the seat first (page 23) then the protective cover (1). Use a coin to unscrew its special screw (2). 1 E The tool bag holds (fig. 25.2): 3) box wrench for spark plugs; 4) tommy bar; 5) double-bit screwdriver; 6) helmet fastening cable. 2 fig. 25.1 6 5 3 4 fig. 25.
MAIN MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS Lifting the fuel tank (fig. 26.1) E 1 Warning Make sure the fuel in the tank is less than 5 litres or fuel may leak out through the filler plug breather. fig. 26.1 Remove the seat (page 23) and lift the hook (1). Lift the tank and unhook the service rod (2, fig. 26.2) from the support. Place the tank onto the rod. When you have finished, reverse the above procedure to refit. Warning When lowering the tank, make sure lines are properly routed to avoid squeezing. 2 fig. 26.
Changing air filter (fig. 27.1) Replace the air filter at the required intervals shown in the routine maintenance chart (see Warranty Card) . The air box is accessible after lifting the fuel tank as described on page 36. To remove the filter, release the cover clips (1) on both sides of the air box and take off the cover (2). Remove the filter cartridge (3, fig. 27.2) and fit a new one.
Checking the coolant level (fig. 28) Check the coolant level in the expansion reservoir on the RH side of the motorcycle. The coolant level must be between the MAX and MIN marks. Top up if the level is too low. Unscrew the filler (1, fig. 28) and add a mixture consisting of water and antifreeze SHELL Advance Coolant or Glycoshell (35-40% of the volume) up to MAX mark. E 1 Refit the filler (1). This mixture improves operating conditions (coolant will start freezing at –20° C). Coolant circuit capacity: 3.
Checking brake and clutch fluid level (fig. 29) Fluid level should never fall below the MIN mark on each reservoir. If level drops below the limit, air might get into the circuit and affect the operation of the system involved. Brake and clutch fluid must be topped up and changed at the intervals specified in the routine maintenance chart refer to the warranty card - by a Ducati dealer or authorized workshop. Important It is recommended all brake and clutch tubes be changed every four years.
Checking brake pads for wear (fig. 30) Front brake To facilitate inspection without removing the pads from the calipers, brake pads have a wear mark. If the grooves in the friction material are still visible, the pad is still in good condition. Rear brake Friction material on each pad must be at least 1 mm thick. Important Have the brake pads replaced at your Ducati dealer's shop or authorized workshop.
Lubricating cables and joints The condition of the outer sheaths of the throttle and fast-idle cables should be checked at regular intervals. The sheaths should show no signs of squeezing or cracking. Work the controls to make sure the cable slides smoothly inside the sheath: if you feel any friction or hard spots, have the cable replaced by your Ducati dealer or authorized workshop.
Charging the battery (fig. 33) Before charging the battery, it is best to remove it from the motorcycle. Always disconnect the black negative terminal (-) first, and then the red positive terminal (+). Undo the strap (1) and remove the battery. E Warning Batteries develop explosive gases: keep battery away from heat sources and flames. Charge the battery in a well ventilated room. Connect the battery charger leads to the battery terminals (red to positive terminal +, black to negative terminal -).
Chain tensioning Turn the rear wheel slowly until you find the position where chain tension is highest. With the motorcycle on the side stand, push the chain up pressing with a finger at the point where it intersects with swing arm centerline. The lower portion of the chain should have a slack as follows (fig. 34.1): 25-27 mm. To adjust chain tension, slacken the nut (1, fig. 34.2) of the wheel spindle.
Chain lubrication The chain fitted on your motorcycle has OR seals that keep dirt out of and lubricant inside the sliding parts. The seals might be irreparably damaged if the chain is cleaned using non-specific solvents or washed using steam or water jets. Dry the chain using compressed air or absorbent material and apply SHELL Advance Chain or Advance Teflon Chain on each link. E Important Using non-specific lubricants may lead to severe damage to chain, front and rear sprocket.
Note Never touch the transparent body of the new bulb with your fingers or it will blacken resulting in reduced bulb brilliancy. Insert the locating pegs of the bulb base into their seats to obtain correct alignment; hook the clip (3) to the headlamp holders. Reconnect the cables. Instrument panel (fig. 36) Disassemble the instrument panel by unscrewing the two fastening screws with washer. Disconnect the odometer cable (1) and the main wiring connector (2).
Turn indicators (fig. 37) Remove the screw (1) and detach the glass (2) from the body. The bulb is of the bayonet-type: press and rotate anticlockwise to remove. Fit the spare bulb by pressing and turning clockwise until it clicks. Refit the glass sliding the small tab (A) into the suitable slot in the indicator body. Tighten the screw (1). E Stop light (fig. 38) To replace the stop and parking light bulb, unscrew the two screws (1) that secure the glass (2). Remove the glass.
Headlamp alignment (fig. 39.1) When checking headlamp alignment, put the motorcycle upright. Tyres should be inflated at the correct pressure and one person should be sitting astride the motorcycle, keeping it at right angles to its longitudinal axis and opposite a wall or a screen, 10 meters apart from it. Then draw a horizontal line dictated by headlamp center and a vertical one in line with the longitudinal axis of motorcycle. If possible, perform this check in dim light.
Tyres Front pressure 2.1 bar - 2.3 Kg/sq cm Rear pressure: 2.2 bar - 2.4 Kg/sq cm As tyre pressure is affected by temperature and altitude variations, you are advised to check and adjust it whenever you are riding in areas where ample variations in temperature or altitude occur. E Important Check and set tyre pressure when tyres are cold. To avoid front wheel rim distortion, when riding on bumpy roads, increase front tyre pressure by 0.2 - 0.3 bar.
Minimum tread depth Measure tread depth (S, fig. 40) at the point where tread is most worn down. It should not be less than 2 mm and anyway not below the legal limit. Important Visually inspect the tyres at regular intervals for detecting cracks or cuts, on the side walls especially, bulges or large spots that are indicative of internal damage. Replace them if badly damaged. Remove any stones or other foreign bodies caught in the tread. Checking engine oil level (fig.
Viscosity SAE 10W-40 The other viscosity degrees indicated in the table can be used if the local average temperature is within the limits specified for that oil viscosity. E Important If the gap needs adjusting, be very careful when bending the side electrode. If gap is too wide or too close, engine performance will be affected. This could also cause difficult starting or irregular idling. Clean the electrode and the insulating material accurately using a small metal brush and check seal condition.
Important Never use spark plugs with a heat rating other than recommended or a thread length other than standard. Spark plugs should be tightened firmly. Cleaning the motorcycle To preserve the finish of metal parts and paintwork, wash and clean your motorcycle at regular intervals, anyway according to the road conditions you ride in. Use specific products only. Prefer biodegradable products. Avoid aggressive detergents or solvents. Important Do not wash your motorcycle right after use.

Reporting of safety defects If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or could cause injury or death, you should immediately inform the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying Ducati North America. If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation, and if it finds that a safety defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy campaign.
Noise and exhaust emission control system information USA E 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.
Riding safety The points given below are applicable for every day motorcycle use and shoud be carefully observed for safe and effective vehicle operation. A motorcycle does not provide the impact protection of an automobile, so defensive riding in addition to wearing protective apparel is extremely important. Do not let protective apparel give you a false sense of security. Before changing lanes, look over your shoulder to make sure the way is clear.
E of any condition affecting stability and the loss of control. Operate motorcycle only at moderate speed and out of traffic until you have become thoroughly familiar with its operation and handling characteristics under all conditions. This is a very high performance motorcycle, designed and intended for use by experienced careful riders only! A new motorcycle must be operated according to a special break-in procedure (see Running in recommendations).
