Tubeless tires
Front tire pressure:
2.50 bar (rider only) - 2.9 bar (with passenger and/or
bags).
Rear tire pressure:
2.50 bar (rider only) - 2.9 bar (with passenger and/or
bags).
Because tire pressure is affected by temperature and
altitude variations, you are advised to check and
adjust it whenever you are riding in areas where
ample variations in temperature or altitude occur.
Important
Check and set tire pressure when tires are cold.
To avoid front wheel rim distortion, when riding on
bumpy roads, increase tire pressure by 0.2 - 0.3 bar.
tire repair or change (Tubeless tires)
In the event of a tiny puncture, tubeless tires will take
a long time to deflate, as they tend to keep air inside.
If you find the pressure low in one tire, check the tire
for punctures.
Attention
Punctured tires must be replaced. Replace tires
with recommended standard tires only. Be sure to
tighten the valve caps securely to avoid leaks when
riding. Never use tube type tires. Failure to heed this
warning may lead to sudden tire blowout and serious
danger to rider and passenger.
After replacing a tire, the wheel must be balanced.
Attention
Do not remove or shift the wheel balancing
weights.
Note
Have the tires replaced at a Ducati Dealer or
Authorized Service Center. Correct removal and
installation of the wheels is essential. Some parts of
the ABS (such as sensors and phonic wheels) are
mounted to the wheels (ABS version) and require
specific adjustment.
