Checking engine oil level
(fig. 76)
Engine oil level can be checked through the
sight window (1) on the clutch cover on the RH side of the
engine. Oil level must be checked with the motorcycle
perfectly upright and the engine cold. Oil level should be
between the marks near the sight glass. Top up oil level with
SHELL Advance Ultra 4, if low. Undo the filler plug (2) and top
up to correct level. Refit the plug.
Important
Engine oil and oil filters must be changed by a Ducati
dealer or Authorised Workshop at the intervals specified in
the scheduled maintenance chart reported in the Warranty
Card.
Viscosity
SAE 15W-50
The other viscosity degrees indicated in the table can be
used if the local average temperature is within the limits
specified for that oil viscosity.
