Checking brake and clutch fluid level
Fluid level should never fall below the MIN mark on each
reservoir (fig. 55 and fig. 56).
If level drops below the limit, air might get into the circuit and
affect the operation of the system involved.
Brake and clutch fluid must be topped up and changed at the
intervals specified in the scheduled maintenance chart
reported in the Warranty Card; please contact a Ducati Dealer
or Authorised Workshop.
Important
It is recommended all brake and clutch lines be
changed every four years.
Brake system
If you find exceeding play on brake lever or pedal and brake
pads are still in good condition, contact your Ducati Dealer or
an Authorised Workshop to have the system inspected and
any air drained out of the circuit.
Warning
Brake and clutch fluid will damage paintwork and
plastic parts if accidentally spilled. Hydraulic oil is corrosive;
it may cause damage and lead to severe injuries. Never mix
different quality oils.
Check seals for proper sealing.
