Introduction

Safety guidelines

We would like to welcome you among Ducati

enthusiasts, and congratulate you on your excellent

choice of motorcycle. We think you will ride your

Ducati motorcycle for long journeys as well as short

daily trips. Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A. wishes you

smooth and enjoyable riding.

Your motorcycle is the result of Ducati Motor Holding

S.p.A.'s on-going research and development efforts.

It is important that you preserve its quality standard

by strictly observing the maintenance plan and using

genuine spare parts. This manual provides

instructions on minor maintenance operations. Major

maintenance operations are described in the

Workshop Manual available to Ducati Authorised

Service Centres.

In your own interest, for your safety and in order to

guarantee product reliability, you are strongly advised

to refer to our authorised Dealers and Service Centres

for any operations listed in the scheduled

maintenance chart, see page 367.

Our highly skilled staff have access to special

implements and appropriate equipment 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.

racing competitions.

Tampering with or altering any components, even

partially, will make the warranty null and void effective

immediately. Improper or poor maintenance, using

other than original spare parts or parts not expressly

approved by Ducati may invalidate your warranty

rights and lead to damage or loss of performance.

Your safety and that of other road users are very

important. Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A. recommends

that you ride responsibly.

Before using your motorcycle for the first time, read

this entire manual carefully and closely follow the

guidelines outlined in it. The manual provides full

information on proper motorcycle operation and

maintenance. In case of any doubts, please contact a

Dealer or Authorised Service Centre.
