Tubeless tyres
Front tyre pressure:
2.50 bar (rider only) - 2.9 bar (with passenger and/or bags)
Rear tyre pressure:
2.50 bar (rider only) - 2.9 bar (with passenger and/or bags)
As tyre pressures are affected by changes in temperature
and altitude; check and adjust them whenever you are riding
in areas where there are large variations in temperature or
altitude.
Important
Check and adjust the pressures with the tyres cold.
To prevent distortion of the front wheel rim, increase tyre
pressure by 0.2 ÷ 0.3 bar when riding on bumpy roads.
Tyre repair or change (Tubeless tyres)
With minor punctures, tubeless tyres take a long time to
deflate, as they tend to hold the air inside. If you find low
pressure on one tyre, check the tyre for punctures.
Warning
Punctured tyres must be renewed.
Replace with tyres of the original brand and type.
Be sure to tighten the valve caps securely to avoid leaks
when riding. Never fit tyres with inner tubes, as these can
cause the tyre to burst suddenly, with possibly serious
consequences for the rider and passenger.
After renewing a tyre, the wheel must be balanced.
Important
Do not remove or alter the position of the wheel
balancing weights.
Note
Have the tyres replaced at a Ducati Dealer or
authorised Service Centre. Correct removal and installation
of the wheels is essential.
as some parts of the ABS (such as sensors and phonic
wheels) are mounted to the wheels and require specific
adjustment.
