Lubrication
Important
Have drive chain cleaned by a Ducati Dealer or
authorised Service Centre.
Attention
Use SHELL Advance Chain to lubricate the
chain; the use of non-specific lubricants could
damage the O-rings and therefore the entire drive
system.
It is recommendable to lubricate the chain without
waiting for it to cool down after using the
motorcycle, so that the new lubricant can penetrate
better between the inner and outer links and be
more effective in its protective action.
Place the bike on the rear paddock stand. Make the
rear wheel turns fast in the opposite direction to the
direction of travel.
