Vehicle Transport - Ducati MULTISTRADA V45 Owner's Manual

Vehicle transport

Before transporting the motorcycle using another
vehicle, follow the safety instructions below.
1) Remove all loose objects and accessories from
the vehicle;
2) Align the front wheel straight in the riding
direction and lock it properly to prevent any
movement;
3) Engage the first gear;
4) Use the anchoring straps and apply them to
strong components (e.g. frame) and NOT to the
handlebar (or handlebars, where present) or to
components that could break (e.g. handgrips,
rear-view mirrors, etc.);
5) The straps or ropes must NOT rub against any
painted motorcycle components;
6) The suspensions, if possible, must be in a
partially compressed position so as to allow less
movement of the vehicle with respect to the
road surface during transport.
Do NOT attach the ropes to the handlebar.
