Side Stand - Ducati STREETFIGHTER Owner's Manual

Side stand

Important
Place the motorcycle on the side stand only
when you are not going to use it for short periods of
time. Before lowering the side stand, make sure that
the bearing surface is hard and flat.
Do not park on soft or pebbled ground or on asphalt
melted by the sun, etc. or else the motorcycle may
fall over. When parking downhill, always position the
motorcycle with the rear wheel facing downhill.
To pull down the side stand, hold the motorcycle
handlebars with both hands and push down on the
side stand (1) with your foot until it is fully extended.
Tilt the motorcycle until the side stand is resting on
the ground.
To easily find the side stand during the opening
phase, press on pin (3) with your foot.
Attention
When using the bike on the track, we
recommend removing the pin (3) by working on the
key (4).
194
To move the side stand to its rest position (horizontal
position), lean the motorcycle to the right while
lifting the thrust arm (1) with your foot.
To ensure trouble-free operation of the side stand
joint, thoroughly clean it and then use SHELL
Alvania R3 grease to lubricate all friction points.
Attention
Do not sit on the motorcycle when it is
supported on the side stand.
