Storing the motorcycle
If the motorcycle is to be left unridden over long
periods, you should perform the following
procedures before storing it away:
-
clean the motorcycle;
-
empty the fuel tank;
-
pour a few drops of engine oil into the cylinders
through the spark plug bores, then turn the
engine over by hand a few times to form a
protective film of oil on the inner walls of the
cylinder;
-
place the motorcycle on a service stand;
-
disconnect and remove the battery.
Battery should be checked and charged whenever
the motorcycle has been left unridden for over a
month.
Protect the motorcycle with a specific motorcycle
cover that will not damage the paintwork or retain
moisture. The canvas is available from Ducati
Performance.
Important notes
The legislation in some countries (France, Germany,
Great Britain, Switzerland, etc.) sets certain noise and
pollution standards.
Periodically carry out the required checks and replace
parts as necessary using Ducati original spare parts
to be in compliance with regulations in the given
country.
