Chain tension inspection
(fig. 65)
Important
Have the drive chain tensioned up at a Ducati Dealer
or Authorized Workshop.
With the motorcycle on the side stand, use your finger to
press the chain down. Then release the chain and measure
the distance between the chain slider and the centre of the
link pin below it. The reading should be 30-35 mm.
Warning
Correct tightening of the tensioner lock nuts (1) is
essential to rider’s safety.
Important
Improper chain tension will lead to early wear of
transmission parts.
Chain lubrication
The chain fitted on your motorcycle has O-rings that keep
dirt out of and lubricant inside the sliding parts.
The seals might be irreparably damaged if the chain is
cleaned using any solvent other than those specific for O-
ring chains or washed using steam or water jets.
After cleaning, blow the chain dry or dry it using absorbent
material and lubricate with SHELL Advance Chain or
Advance Teflon Chain on each link.
Important
Using non-specific lubricants may lead to severe
damage to chain, front and rear sprocket.
