Storing The Motorcycle - Ducati DESERTX Owner's Manual

Storing the motorcycle

If the motorcycle is to be left unridden over long
periods, it is advisable to carry out the following
operations before storing it away:
clean the motorcycle;
●
place the motorcycle on a service stand;
●
Battery should be checked and charged (or replaced,
as required) whenever the motorcycle has been left
unridden for over a month.
Protect the motorcycle with a bike canvas. This will
protect paintwork and prevent retaining
condensate.
The bike canvas is available from Ducati
Performance.
