Chain Lubrication - Ducati Diavel ABS 2012 Owner's Manual

Warning
Correct tightening of screws (1, fig. 162) is
critical to rider and passenger safety.
Important
Improper chain tension will lead to rapid wear of
transmission parts.

Chain lubrication

The chain fitted on your motorcycle has O-rings to
protect its moving parts from dirt and to hold the
lubricant inside.
The seals might be irreparably damaged if the chain
is cleaned using any solvent other than those specific
for O-ring chains or washed using steam or water
cleaners.
After cleaning, blow the chain dry or dry it using
absorbent material and apply SHELL Advance Chain
or Advance Teflon Chain on each link.
Important
Using non-specific lubricants may lead to
severe damage to chain, front and rear sprocket.
