Checking the brake and clutch fluid level

The level must not fall below the MIN mark on the
corresponding reservoir (fig. 70) (the figure shows the
front and rear brake fluid reservoirs).
If the level is too low, air can get into the circuit, thus
impairing the efficiency of the system.
Brake and clutch fluid must be topped up and changed at
the intervals specified in the routine maintenance table
(see Warranty Booklet) by a Ducati Dealer or Authorized
Service Centre.
Important
It is recommended that all brake and clutch hoses be
renewed every four years.
Brake system
If there is excessive play at the brake lever or pedal even
though the brake pads are still in good condition, contact a
Ducati Dealer or Authorized Service Centre to have the
system inspected and any air expelled from the circuit.
Warning
Brake and clutch fluid can damage paintwork and
plastic parts, so avoid contact. Hydraulic fluid is corrosive
and can cause damage and injuries. Never mix fluids of
different qualities.
Check that the seals are in good condition.
