Lubricating the drive chain
Important
Have drive chain cleaned by a Ducati Dealer or
authorised Service Centre.
Attention
Carry out these inspection operations with the
engine off, the vehicle at a standstill, on a flat ground
and on the stand.
Cleaning
Before proceeding with the chain lubrication it is
important to correctly wash and clean it.
The chain cleaning is extremely important for its
duration. In fact, it is necessary to remove any mud,
soil, sand or dirt from the chain first using a soft
damp cloth (1) to soften the most resistant dirt and
then with a jet of water and then dry it immediately
using compressed air at a distance of at least 30 cm
(11.81 in).
Checking the chain
The chain fitted on your motorcycle has O-rings that
keep dirt out of and lubricant inside the sliding parts.
Check the chain for wear by checking the links at the
points indicated (2).
