Tips on how to select the intervention level
Attention
Excellent operation of the DWC system, for all
available levels, is ensured only with the OE final
drive ratio and with OE tires and/or with the ones
recommended by Ducati. In particular, OE tires for
this motorcycle are Pirelli Scorpion Trail II in the
following sizes: 120/70ZR19 at the front, 170/60ZR17
at the rear. The use of tyres of different size and
characteristics to the original tyres may alter the
operating characteristics of the system thus making
it unsafe. It is recommended not to install tyres of
different size than the ones approved for your
vehicle.
At level 8 the DWC system reduces the motorcycle's
proneness to do wheelies to a minimum level and
sensitively intervenes in case of wheelie. Between
level 8 and level 1 there are further intermediate
levels of intervention for the DWC. Levels 1, 2 and 3
allow easier wheelies, but reduce their speed: these
levels are recommended only for track use and for
expert riders who can control wheelies on their own
and exploit the system feature that reduces the
speed at which the front wheel tends to lift.
The choice of the correct level mainly depends on
the following parameters:
●
The rider's experience;
●
The characteristics of the path/circuit (bend exit
with low or high gear engaged).
The rider's experience
The choice of level setting depends greatly on the
riders' experience and ability to control wheelies on
their own. Levels 1, 2 and 3 require a great experience
to ensure proper control.
Level depends on type of path
If the path features bends where out speed and gear
are low, a higher DWC level setting will be necessary;
while a path with faster bends will allow the use of a
lower DWC level setting.
Tips for use on the road
Activate the DWC, select level 8 and ride the
motorcycle in your usual style; if the level of DWC
sensitivity seems excessive, try levels 7, 6, etc., until
you find the one that suits you best. If changes occur
in the circuit characteristics, and the level setting is
no longer suitable, switch to the next level up or
down and proceed to determine the best setting
(e.g. if with level 7 the DWC intervention seems
