Lubricating joints
Check the outer sheath of the throttle control cables for
damage at regular intervals. The outer plastic cover should
not be flattened or cracked. Work the controls to make sure
the cables slide smoothly inside the sheaths: if you feel any
friction or jamming, have the cable replaced by a Ducati
Dealer or Authorised Workshop.
To avoid this kind of problem, unscrew the two retaining
screws (1, fig. 59) to open the case and then grease cable
ends and pulley with SHELL Advance Grease or Retinax LX2
grease.
Warning
Close the case carefully after threading the cables onto
the pulley.
Refit the cover and tighten the screws (1) to 6 Nm.
To ensure smooth operation of side stand joint, clean off any
dirt and apply SHELL Alvania R3 grease at all points exposed
to friction (1, fig. 60).
