Tips on how to select the sensitivity level
Attention
Excellent operation of the EBC system, for all
available levels, is ensured only with OE tyres and/or
with the ones recommended by Ducati and with the
OE final drive ratio. In particular, OE tyres for this
motorcycle are Pirelli Diablo Rosso Corsa II in the
following sizes: 120/70ZR17 at the front, 180/60ZR17
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.
As far as tyres are concerned, in the case of minor
differences such as, for example, tyres of a different
make and/or model than the OE ones, it is necessary
to use the relevant automatic calibration function in
order to restore correct system operation.
As far as the final ratio is concerned, when using a
different ratio (which only possible for tracing use)
than the original equipment one, it is recommended
to use the relevant automatic calibration function in
order to restore optimal system operation.
Selecting level 3, the EBC will kick in to ensure the
minimum engine brake possible. Between level 3
and level 1 the engine brake levels are increasing
progressively; with level 1 you set the maximum
engine brake level possible.
The choice of the correct level mainly depends on
the following parameters:
1) The grip (type of tyre, amount of tyre wear, the
road/track surface, weather conditions, etc.).
2) The characteristics of the path/circuit (bends all
taken at similar speeds or at very different
speeds).
3) The Riding Mode.
Level depends on grip conditions
The choice of level setting depends greatly on the
grip conditions of the track/circuit.
Level depends on type of track
If the track/path requires consistent braking (always
aggressive or always smooth), it will be easier to find
a level suitable for all braking instances; while a
track/path requiring different braking power will
require an EBC system level setting that is the best
compromise for all instances.
