Engine oil level can be checked through the sight
glass (1) provided on the clutch cover Oil level must
be checked with the motorcycle perfectly upright and
the engine cold. Oil level should be between the
marks on the sight glass. If the level is low, top up
with SHELL Advance 4T Ultra engine oil. Remove the
oil filler cap (2) and top up until the oil reaches the
required level. Refit the plug.
Important

Ducati Dealer or Authorized Service Center at the
intervals specified in the scheduled maintenance
chart contained in the Warranty Booklet.
