Checking drive chain tension
(fig. 152)
Important
Have chain tension adjusted by a Ducati Dealer
or authorised Service Centre.
Make the rear wheel turn until you find the position
where chain is tightest.
Set the vehicle on the side stand. Push down the
chain at the point of measurement and release.
Measure the distance between the “aperture” upper
profile and pin centre.
The read distance must be: 9 ÷ 11 mm.
Important
If the drive chain is too tight or too slack, adjust
it so that tension reading will fall within specified
range.
9 ÷ 11 mm
