Checking Engine Oil Level - Ducati 749R Owner's Manual

Checking engine oil level (fig. 78)
Engine oil level can be checked through the sight glass
(1) provided on the clutch cover. When checking oil level,
the motorcycle should be upright and the engine cold.
Allow a few minutes for oil to settle to a steady level after
stopping the engine. Oil level should be between the
marks near the sight glass. Top up oil level with SHELL
Advance Ultra 4, if low. Undo the filler plug (2) and top up
to correct level. Refit the plug.

specified in the routine maintenance chart (see Warranty
Card).
