Warranty

In your own interest, and in order to guarantee product

reliability, you are strongly advised to refer to our authorised

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”.

However, warranty does not apply to the motorcycles used

in competitions or competitive trials. No motorcycle part may

be tampered with, altered, or replaced with parts other than

original Ducati spare parts during the warranty period, or the

warranty will be automatically invalidated.

Symbols

Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A. advises you to read this booklet

carefully so as to become familiar with your motorcycle. In

workshop. The information contained herein will prove

useful on your trips - and Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A. wishes

you smooth, enjoyable riding - and will help you keep the

performance of your motorcycle unchanged for a long time.

This manual contains some special remarks:

Warning

Failure to comply with these instructions may put you

at risk and lead to severe injury or death.

Important

Possibility of damaging the motorcycle and/or its

components.

Note

Additional information on the job being carried out.

The terms right and left are referred to the motorcycle

viewed from the riding position.

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.

The rider must always wear adequate clothing and a safety

helmet.

Wear proper clothing, with no loose items or accessories

that may become tangled in the controls or limit your zone of

vision.

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.

Keep your feet on the footpegs when the motorcycle is in

motion.

Always hold the handlebars firmly with both hands so you

will be ready for sudden changes of direction or in the road

surface.

Ride within the law and observe national and local rules.

Always respect speed limits where these are posted.

However, always adjust your speed to the visibility, road and

traffic conditions you are riding in.

Always signal your intention to turn or pull to the next lane

in good time using the suitable turn indicators.

Be sure you are clearly visible and do not ride within the blind

spot of vehicles ahead.

Be very careful when tackling road junctions, or when riding

in the areas near exits from private grounds, car parks or on

slip roads to access 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, you may 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 when you leave your motorcycle

unattended.

The engine, exhaust pipes, and mufflers stay hot for a long

time.

Warning

The exhaust system might be hot, even after engine is

switched off; pay particular attention not to touch exhaust

system with any body part and do not park the vehicle next

to inflammable material (wood, leaves etc.).

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.

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.

Information about carrying capacity

The total weight of the motorcycle in running order

including rider, luggage and additional accessories should not

exceed:

320 Kg.

Arrange your luggage or heavy accessories in the lowest

possible position and close to motorcycle centre.

Be sure to secure the luggage to the supports provided on

the motorcycle as firmly as possible. Improperly secured

luggage may affect stability.

Never fix bulky or heavy objects to the handlebar or to the

front mudguard as this would affect stability and cause

danger.

Do not insert any objects you may need to carry into the gaps

of the frame as these may foul moving parts.

Make sure the tyres are inflated to the proper pressure

indicated at page 85 and that they are in good condition.

Identification data

All Ducati motorcycles have two identification numbers, for

frame (fig. 1) and engine (fig. 2).

Note

These numbers identify the motorcycle model and

should always be indicated when ordering spare parts.
