Replacing Bulbs - Ducati SUPERSPORT Owner's Manual

Replacing bulbs

Before replacing a burnt-out bulb, make sure that the
new bulb complies with voltage and wattage as specified
on page 65, "Electric System", for that lighting device.
Always test the new lamp before refitting the parts you
have removed.
Headlamp
To gain access to headlamp bulbs you will need to work
behind the headlamp fairing.
E
Remove connector (1, fig. 61) from the bulb.
Pull the tab (A) to remove the protective cap.
Release the clip (2, fig. 62) that holds the bulb in place
and take the bulb out of its socket. Fit a new bulb.
Note
Be careful to hold the new bulb at the base only.
Never touch the transparent body with your fingers or it
will blacken resulting in reduced bulb brilliancy.
Reassembly
Insert the locating pegs of the bulb base into their seats
to obtain correct alignment.
Hook the clip (2) to the headlamp holders; reconnect the
connector (1) you have detached previously and refit the
rubber cover.
The parking light bulb is fitted on the top section of the
headlamp body. To change it, pull out the bulb holder (3,
fig. 63) from headlamp body.
Remove the bulb and fit a new one.
