Useful tips
Ducati recommends you to follow the instructions below in order to prevent problems and obtain the best result:
- when diagnosing faults, primary consideration should always be given to what the customer reports about
motorcycle operation since this information can highlight faults; your questions to the customer concerning
symptoms of the fault should be aimed at clarifying the problem;
- diagnose the problem systematically and accurately before proceeding further. This manual provides the
theoretical background for troubleshooting; this basis must be combined with personal experience and
attendance at periodic training courses held by Ducati;
- repair work should be planned carefully in advance to prevent any unnecessary downtime, for example
obtaining the required spare parts or preparing the necessary tools, etc.;
- limit the number of operations needed to access the part to be repaired. Note that the disassembly procedures
in this manual describe the most efficient way to reach the part to be repaired.
- Always use top quality tools. When lifting the motorcycle, only use devices that fully comply with the relevant
European directives.
- When working on the motorcycle, always keep the tools within reach, ideally in the order required, and never
put them on the motorcycle or in hard-to-reach or inaccessible places.
- The workplace must be kept clean and tidy at all times.
- Always replace gaskets, sealing rings and split pins with new parts.
- When loosening or tightening nuts or screws, always start with the largest or start from the centre; tighten
nuts and screws to the specified torque working in a cross pattern.
- Always mark any parts and positions which might easily be confused upon reassembly.
- Use exclusively Ducati original spare parts and the recommended brands of lubricants.
- Use special tools where specified.
- Ducati Technical Bulletins often contain updated versions of the service procedures described in this manual.
Check the latest Bulletins for details.
General safety rules
Carbon monoxide
When a maintenance operation must be performed with the engine running, make sure that the working area is
well-ventilated. Never run the engine indoors.
Warning
Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, which is a poisonous gas that can cause unconsciousness or even death if
inhaled.
Run the engine outdoors or, if working indoors, use an exhaust gas extraction system.
Fuel
Always make sure the working area is well ventilated. Keep any sources of ignition, such as cigarettes, open flames
or sparks, well away from working area and fuel storage area.
Warning
Fuel is highly flammable and can explode under certain conditions. Keep away from children.
Hot parts
Warning
The engine and exhaust parts become hot when the motorcycle engine is running and will stay hot for some time
after the engine has been stopped. Wear heat-resistant gloves before handling these components or allow the
engine and exhaust system to cool down before proceeding.
Warning
The exhaust system might be hot, even after engine is switched OFF; pay particular attention not to touch exhaust
system with any body part and do not park the motorcycle next to inflammable material (wood, leaves etc.).
Warning
Wear suitable gloves to work with engine oil. Keep away from children.
Brake dust
Warning
Never clean the brake assembly using compressed air or a dry brush.
Brake fluid
Warning
Spilling brake fluid onto plastic, rubber or painted parts of the motorcycle may cause damages. Protect these parts
with a clean shop cloth before proceeding to service the system. Keep away from children.
Coolant
Engine coolant contains ethylene glycol, which may ignite under particular conditions, producing invisible flames.
Although the flames from burning ethylene glycol are not visible, they are still capable of causing severe burns.
Warning
Take care not to spill engine coolant on the exhaust system or engine parts. These parts may be hot and ignite the
coolant, which will subsequently burn with invisible flames. Coolant (ethylene glycol) is irritant and poisonous when
ingested. Keep away from children. Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. The coolant is under
pressure and will cause severe burns.
The cooling fan operates automatically: keep hands well clear and make sure your clothing does not snag on the
fan.
Battery
Warning
The battery gives off explosive gases; never cause sparks or allow naked flames and cigarettes near the battery.
When charging the battery, ensure that the working area is properly ventilated.
Model identification
Identification data
Each Ducati motorcycle is identified by two numbers, one for the frame and one for the engine.

MA2 and API: SM.
Important
Do not use any additives in fuel or lubricants. Using them could result in severe damage of the engine and
motorcycle components.
Warning
The motorcycle is only compatible with fuel having a maximum content of ethanol of 10% (E10). Using fuel with
ethanol content over 10% is forbidden. Using it could result in severe damage to the engine and motorcycle
components. Using fuel with ethanol content over 10% will make the warranty null and void.
Engine oil
A good quality engine oil has special properties. Use only a highly detergent engine oil with certified SE, SF or SG
or higher service ratings as marked on the container.
SAE 15W-50 is an alphanumerical code identifying oil class based on viscosity: two figures with a W ("winter") in-
between; the first figure indicates oil viscosity at low temperature; the second figure indicates its viscosity at high
temperature. API (American standard) and JASO (Japanese standard) standards specify oil characteristics.

Rectifier-regulator
The regulator (1) is placed on front side of the vehicle, behind the steering tube.
The rectifier/regulator consists of an aluminium casing containing the diodes that rectify the current produced by
the generator.
It also contains an electronic device that regulates the current supplied by the generator in accordance with battery
voltage.
If the battery is drained, the current has the value necessary to restore optimum operating conditions of the
battery itself. While, if the battery is fully charged, the current value will be lower.
Note
Check the charging current by using the "DDS" diagnosis instrument.
Disconnect the voltage regulator connector (2) and the generator connector (3) from regulator (1).
Loosen the two front screws on regulator (1) and remove them together with the regulator.
Important
Do not disconnect the battery cables when engine is running because this would cause irreparable damage to the
regulator.
Connect the voltage regulator connector (2) and the generator connector (3) to regulator.
Regulator fuse
The 30 A fuse, positioned inside solenoid (1), on the rear side of the rear subframe, protects the electronic
regulator.
Important
Switch the ignition key to OFF before replacing the fuse to avoid possible short-circuits.
Warning
Never use a fuse with a rating other than the specified value. Failure to observe this rule may damage the electric
system or even cause fire.
Generator
It is equipped with a 14 V, 460 W generator, consisting of a fixed element (stator, A) located in the generator
cover and of a movable element (rotor, B) fastened to the crankshaft.
To check the battery charging system for faults, use the "DDS" diagnosis instrument and follow the instructions
given in the paragraph "Checking the battery charging system".
If checks have a negative outcome, the whole generator (rotor and stator) must be replaced.
If checks have a favourable outcome, reconnect the generator to the regulator with ignition key on OFF. Make sure
that no cables are damaged or disconnected.
Warning
Before carrying out any operations on the battery, keep in mind the safety standards. When under charge,
batteries produce explosive gases. Keep batteries away from heat sources, sparks or open flames.
Note
Always keep the battery clean. Apply grease around the battery terminals to prevent corrosion.

After performing an operation on the rear brake control, check the brake pedal position following the instructions
detailed in Section "Adjusting the position of the gear pedal and rear brake pedal".
Removing the rear brake control
Warning
The brake master cylinder manufacturer advises against servicing the brake master cylinder due to the safety
critical nature of this component. Incorrect overhaul can endanger rider and passenger safety. Maintenance
operations on these units are limited to replacement of the following parts: control lever, fluid reservoir assembly
and relative fasteners and master cylinder fasteners.
Drain the rear braking system (Changing the rear brake system fluid).
For the front ABS brake system, please also refer to Sections "ABS system operation information" and chapters
"System components" and "ABS component maintenance".
Loosen rear brake master cylinder retaining screws (2). Slide out rear brake master cylinder (3) from the adjusting
rod (4), collect bracket (5) securing rear stop (1).
Undo pin (6) securing the brake lever (7), collecting spring (8).
Slide out the brake lever (7) and collect pin (6), washer (9), bushing (10) and O-ring (11).
Undo the special screw (12) from master cylinder (3) by removing the hose clip (13); slide out hose (14),
collecting the seals (15).
Remove rear brake master cylinder (3) from vehicle.
ABS system deactivation
ABS (Antilock Braking System) intervention can be customised and possibly disabled on the instrument panel.
Warning
If the vehicle front wheel remains off the ground for a prolonged period while the vehicle is moving, the speed
difference detected between the two wheels causes an ABS fault (warning light activated) and makes it impossible
for the control unit to establish a reference speed.
ABS system operation information
The operation of the system is based on the analysis of the speed signals for front and rear wheels; the system is
automatically deactivated if even only one of these signals is missing.
Note
In the event of the ABS control unit detecting a fault in the ABS electronic management system, it activates the
specific fault warning indicator on the instrument panel and restores conventional braking functionality without
ABS.
Hydraulic faults in the brake system and faults not directly related to the ABS system (e.g.: worn brake pads)
cannot be detected by the ABS control unit.
Important
The operation of the system is based on the values read for the front and rear wheel speeds; take great care not to
damage the phonic wheels and relative speed sensors when removing the wheels or when working close to these
components; the phonic wheels damage may compromise the operation of the system and cause dangerous
malfunctions.
ABS diagnosis
The ABS control unit diagnosis will check the system main component operation by analysing the system software
and hardware.
In the DDS2.0 diagnosis software, select HYPERMOTARD family, then model HYM939, and then select "Model Year
16" or higher. The Global Scan functions will be automatically started by the diagnosis software; connect the
instrument to the CAN diagnosis socket on the bike and perform a key-on.
The diagnosis instrument communicates with the different control units present on the bike, ABS control unit
included; wait for the scan to be completed.
Among the displayed information a "dot" is shown next to every control unit and it is colour-coded to indicate the
presence or absence of validated errors.
In particular, if errors are stored (errors no longer present at time of scan), the "dot" will be yellow or if errors are
currently present, the "dot" will be red, while if no errors are present, the "dot" will be green. The "dot" will be
grey if the control unit is not detected by the diagnosis instrument (i.e. the control unit does not respond to
requests made according to the diagnosis protocol).
To make a deeper analysis of the ABS control unit, select the line corresponding to ABS control unit and then SELF-
DIAGNOSIS button on the menu on the side or, as an alternative, make a double selection on the same line with
your mouse.
Once in this configuration, a number of parameters and statuses of the ABS control unit and information
concerning the control unit itself may be selected and displayed.
The INFO ECU menu allows reading the software version loaded on the control unit as well as other information.
Viewable parameters
Front calliper pressure The pressure value in the front brake circuit is displayed in (bar)
Front wheel speed sensor The medium period between impulses coming from the front wheel speed sensor is
impulse time displayed in micro-seconds (µs)
Rear wheel speed sensor The medium period between impulses coming from the rear wheel speed sensor is
impulse time displayed in micro-seconds (µs)
System voltage measured The system voltage value, measured across the terminals of the ABS control unit, is
in ABS unit displayed in Volts (V)
Viewable states
Hydraulic pump motor Indicates if the electric motor of the hydraulic pump inside the ABS unit is functioning
state or not
Safety valve relay status Displays the status of the main valve relay inside the ABS control unit
ABS light The status of ABS warning light present on the motorcycle instrument panel is
displayed
This diagnosis instrument function provides the user with information concerning the error list in the ABS control
unit memory, indicating if errors are stored or current. The following codes are given after a short description of
the diagnosis type: MEM, indicating that the error has been stored previously by the ABS control unit but has not
been detected in the current test session. ATT, indicating that the error is current and has been detected during
the current test session.
Note
While ATT indicates that the error has been found during the current test session, it does not necessarily indicate
that the error is actually active at the time of indication. For example: disconnecting the front wheel speed sensor
causes the code ATT to be displayed after the error description, but the code continues to be displayed even once
the cause of its activation has been eliminated by reconnecting the sensor, as the ABS will only check sensor
operation again after the next key-off/key-on cycle. As a result, always perform a key-on/key-off cycle after any
work on the ABS system, interrupting and re-establishing communication between the diagnostic instrument and
the ABS control unit before checking the updated ABS error list again.
The abbreviations for all the errors displayed are given as follows:
C0031 Front speed sensor signal - Plausibility Front speed sensor fault - Plausibility
C003D Rear speed sensor signal - Plausibility Rear speed sensor fault - Plausibility
C1000 Plausibility of difference between front and Front and rear wheel speed difference (WSS_GENERIC)

C1002 Front inlet valve fault Front inlet valve (1) fault
C1003 Front outlet valve fault Front outlet valve (2) fault
C1004 Rear inlet valve fault Rear inlet valve (1) fault
C1005 Rear outlet valve fault Rear outlet valve (2) fault
U0315 ABS control unit Compatibility Error ABS control unit not compatible
Warning
If the vehicle front wheel remains off the ground for a prolonged period while the vehicle is moving, the speed
difference detected between the two wheels causes an ABS fault (warning light activated) and makes it impossible
for the control unit to establish a reference speed.
Operating principle
The Ducati ABS brake system manages the front and rear brake systems separately. The operating mechanism
consists of a pulse generator (phonic wheel), with a ring of slots, fitted onto each wheel. There are HALL sensors
on LH fork leg bottom end and on rear brake calliper holder plate. With vehicle running, they read the slots on the
phonic wheel thereby detecting instant wheel speed. These sensors output data to ABS control unit, which contains
software with a special control algorithm developed by Ducati. The software compares the vehicle average speed
with the instant wheel speed reading and assesses any slipping condition. If control values are exceeded when the
rider commands a certain pressure on brake calliper, the control unit shall hydraulically control the braking system,
which is nearly locked up. The system can modulate pressure at the calliper through a set of solenoid valves which
first prevent any further increase of hydraulic pressure (1 valve closing), and then make the pressure decrease (2
valve opening). The 2 valve is opened in a series of pulses (with less than 10 milliseconds between successive
pulses), to reduce pressure in steps. When the wheel begins to turn again in response to the diminished braking
force applied and its rotation speed reaches the reference value, the exhaust valve 2 will be closed.
Simultaneously, the inlet valve 1 is reopened, restoring normal operation of the brake system. The ABS control
unit can monitor and modulate brake force in the three following different conditions: dry road surface (high grip),
wet or slippery road surface (poor grip) and uneven road surface. ABS functionality is disabled at vehicle speeds
lower than 5 km/h.
The hydraulic component of the ABS system consists of a primary circuit (from the cylinder to the control unit and
from the control unit to the calliper) and a secondary circuit (completely within the control unit).
Please find below a chart explaining ABS hydraulic operation.

Overhauling the cylinder head components
Cylinder heads
Remove any carbon deposits from the combustion chamber and its ducts.
Remove any scale from the coolant ducts.
Check for cracking and inspect the sealing surfaces for scoring, steps or other damage.
Check that the cylinder mating surfaces of the cylinder head are free of carbon deposits and scale. If this is not the
case, spread diamond lapping paste (6 to 12 micron thickness) on a reference surface and slide the cylinder head
on the surface as shown in the figure until a flat surface is obtained.
Valve seats
Visually inspect the valve seats: there must be no pitting or cracks.
Minor damage can be repaired by grinding with special 45° and 60° single-blade grinders. Grind the valves and
check the seal.
If the valve seats are excessively damaged, fit oversize seats. Replacement seats are available with 0.03 and
0.06 mm oversized outside diameters.
Important
When you change the valve seats, change the valve guides as well.
Proceed as follows.
Remove the worn seats, grinding carefully to avoid any damage to cylinder head housings.
Check the diameter of head housings and choose the oversized valve seat that will give an interference fit of 0.04
to 0.10 mm.
Heat the cylinder head gradually and evenly up to 150 °C and chill the new valve seats in dry ice.
Drive the seats perfectly square into the housings using the appropriate valve guide seat installers 88713.2846
and 88713.2847.
Allow the cylinder head to cool down and grind the seats to the following dimensions:
CA = Ø38.5 mm (0 ; 0.5).
CS = Ø31.3 mm (0 ; –0.5).
S = 0.2x45° mm.
Important
Do not use any lapping compound after final grinding.
It is advisable to lap the radius between the intake valve seats and the intake ducts (F = before; G = after).
Valve guides
Check the internal surface of the valve guides: there should be no signs of deformation or cracking.
Thoroughly check the dimensions of the valve guide.
Measure the inside diameter with a suitable gauge.
Measure the diameter at different positions of the valve guide.
The clearance upon fitting must be: maximum detected value - minimum detected value = 0.03÷0.045 mm.
The maximum permissible wear limit is 0.08 mm.
Change the valve guides when the ovality exceeds permissible limit or the valve stem clearance is outside the
tolerance range.
When you change the valve guide, you must also change the valve.
Valve guides as spare parts are available with outside diameter oversized by 0.03, 0.06 and 0.09 mm.
Change the valve guides as follows:
Warning
The valves cannot be ground.
Use Prussian blue or a mixture of minium and oil to check that the contact surface (W) between valve and seat is
1.4 to 1.6 mm (1.05 to 1.35 mm when new).
Grind the seat if the dimension measured is greater than the above limit.
Checking the valve seal
After grinding the seats it is important to check the seal between valve face and seat: if the seat contact area (S)
on the valve is wider than the 45° band (W) this could lead to poor sealing.
Remove the complete head from the engine (Removing the engine heads).

Refitting the cylinder/piston assembly
If new parts are used, it is necessary to match cylinders and pistons of the same selection (see chapter
"Overhauling the cylinder/piston components").
Note
If the pistons have been separated from their cylinders, before reassembling these components, position the piston
ring gaps at 120° from one another (the markings must always face the piston crown).
Use a universal tool to carefully insert the piston into the cylinder (first lubricate the inside of the cylinder with
engine oil). Position the cylinder with the smallest valve recess is on the side of the exhaust.
Remove any deposits and degrease the contact surfaces of the crankcase half and the cylinders.
Check that the cylinder centring dowels (B) are fitted on the crankcase.

Overhauling the cylinder/piston components
Check that the walls of the cylinder are perfectly smooth. Measure the cylinder diameter at 50 mm from the top
face and determine the size class to which it belongs in accordance with the values specified in
Section "Cylinder/piston".
Repeat measurement of the diameter at three heights "A" (10 mm from the upper surface), "B" (50 mm from the
upper surface) and "C" (100 mm from the upper surface) and in two directions at 90° between them; check that
the measurements of taper and ovality fall within the range specified in Section "Cylinder/piston".
In the event of damage or excessive wear the cylinder must be replaced as it has a silicon carbide coating (which
provides the cylinder walls with excellent anti-friction and anti-wear properties) and therefore cannot be ground.
The cylinders are marked with letters (stamped between the two oil return ways) indicating their size class.
Always match cylinders with pistons from the same size class.
Overhauling the piston
Clean the piston crown and piston ring grooves, removing any carbon deposits.
Visually inspect the piston and check its dimensions carefully: there must be no signs of scuffing, scoring, cracks,
or other damage.
The piston diameter must be measured at 7.5 mm up from the bottom of the skirt and in perpendicular direction to
the gudgeon pin axis.
The pistons must always be replaced as a pair.
The pistons are marked with a symbol (selected letter (L) punched onto the piston crown) that indicates the size
class to which they belong.
Always match cylinders with pistons from the same size class.
(F): arrow that indicates the exhaust side.
For the correct values, refer to chapter "Cylinder/piston".
Overhauling the gudgeon pins
Gudgeon pins must be perfectly smooth without signs of scoring, steps, or blueing due to overheating.
The well-lubricated gudgeon pin must slide smoothly inside the piston without stiffness.
For the coupling clearance values with the piston and the connecting rod, see chapter "Cylinder/Piston".
If a new gudgeon pin is fitted, you must also change the connecting rod small end bush.
Overhauling the piston rings
The piston rings must not show any signs of scuffing or scoring.
Spare pistons are supplied complete with piston rings and gudgeon pin.
Checking the piston ring-grooves clearance
The maximum permissible wear limit is 0.15 mm for the top ring (1st ring "S") and 0.10 mm for the others (2nd
ring "T" and oil scraper ring "R").
The piston rings must always be fitted with markings (M) facing upwards.
Checking the piston ring/cylinder clearance
Insert the piston ring 50 mm from the top face of the cylinder; make sure that the ring is positioned perfectly
square to the cylinder axis by checking with a gauge at several points around the ring that the top surface of the
ring is 50 mm from the cylinder top face.
Measure the piston ring gap (A):

drum.
If it proves necessary to change components, disassemble the gearchange mechanism as shown in the exploded
view.
Upon reassembly, check that the spring (9) is installed correctly as shown in the figure.
Reassembling the gearbox assembly
To refit the gearbox components follow the procedure under chapter "Closing the crankcase" relating to the
reassembly of the crankcase.
As a final practical test, ensure that with the gearbox in neutral the front coupling dogs (A) of sliding gears (B) are
equidistant on both sides with respect to the corresponding coupling dogs on the fixed gears (C).
Check also that there is always a small amount of clearance between fork (D) and relative groove (E) on sliding
gear (B) when engaging the gears.
The figure shows all components that must be fitted on the primary shaft (23) with washer (17).
The figure shows all components to be fitted on the secondary shaft (16) with washer (2).
Fit washer (5), roller bearing cage (4) and first speed driven gear (3).
Refit clutch side washer (2) on the secondary shaft (16).
Inspecting the fork selector drum
Use a gauge to measure the clearance between fork pin and the groove on the selector drum.
If the service limit has been exceeded, determine which part must be replaced by comparing these dimensions with
those of new components.
Also check the wear on the drum support pins; these must not show any signs of scoring, burrs, or deformation.
Turn the drum in the crankcase to establish the extent of radial play.
If play is excessive, change whichever part is most worn (Gearbox).
Inspecting the gear selector forks
Visually inspect the gear selector forks. Bent forks must be replaced as they may lead to difficulties in gear
changing or may suddenly disengage when under load.
Use a feeler gauge to check the clearance of each fork in its gear groove.
If the service limit has been exceeded, check whether or not it is necessary to replace the gear or the fork by
referring to the limits specified for each part (Gearbox).
Overhauling the gearbox
Check the condition of the front coupling dogs of the gears. They must be in perfect condition and with no sign of
wear on the edges of the teeth.
The idler gears must rotate freely on their shafts.
When refitting, make sure the circlips are correctly positioned.
Check the needle roller bearings for wear.
The threads and splines of the shafts must be in perfect condition.
Also check that the component parts of the gear selector mechanism are in good condition.
Engage the gears and check that the gearchange mechanism does not stick (selector fork-gear groove, and fork
pin-desmodromic drum groove) due to incorrect end float.
Restore the correct end float by shimming the gearbox shafts and the selector drum with suitable shims (Gearbox).
Disassembling the gearbox shafts
Place the shaft in a vice in such a way to facilitate the disassembly operations.
Important
Take care not to invert the shim position upon reassembly: this would potentially lead to jamming when using the
gear selector control, making it necessary to reopen the crankcase.
Withdraw the first speed driven gear (3) with the roller cage (4) and the shim (5).
Remove the fifth speed driven gear (6).
Remove the roller bearing cage (10), the splined washer (8) and the snap ring (7). Remove the sixth speed driven

Using a torque wrench as shown in the figure, tighten screws (3) to the values specified here below:
Remove the feeler gauge and check that connecting rods/crankshaft end float is: 0.15÷0.30mm.
Overhauling the connecting rod assembly
In case of excessive wear, replace the connecting rod. The small end bush must be in good condition and firmly
driven into its seat. Check the parallelism error measured at 100 mm from the connecting rod longitudinal axis:
it must be H-h lower than 0.02 mm (H standard height when new is 124 mm); change the con-rod if it is not so.
Connecting rod big-end diameter must be within the specified limits.
It is preferable to use crankshafts and connecting rods of the same size class.
Replacing connecting rod big end bearings
It is good practice to replace the bearings (4) each time the engine is overhauled.
Spare bearings are supplied ready for fitting and they must not be reworked with scrapers or emery cloth.
The bearings may belong to two different size classes, each identified by a specific colour (S) (RED and BLUE).
The bearings are comprised of an external steel ring, the inner face of which is electroplated with a lead-based
compound.
The table shows the appropriate bearings to be fitted according to the size class of the crankshaft.

Use a dial gauge to measure the alignment of the main journals by positioning the crankshaft between two centres.
To carry out this operation, use a heat gun able to reach 150 °C.
Loosen the plug (7) of the crankshaft, heating the latter, if necessary, to remove the sealant applied upon
assembly.
Clean all the oilways using suitable diameter metal brushes and then blow with compressed air to remove any
residues that may have accumulated and may be restricting the oil flow.
Apply the indicated product and tighten the dowels (5) and the special screw (6) to a torque of 13Nm (Min.11Nm -
Max. 15Nm).
Apply the indicated product and tighten plug (7) to a torque of 15Nm (Min. 13.5Nm - Max.16.5Nm).
Tighten dowels.
Big-end bearing-crank pin clearance
In order to correctly couple big-end bearings and crank pin, proceed as follows:
Tightening procedure
Tighten the connecting rod bolts (Class 14.9) as described below:
To disassemble the connecting rod assembly, loosen screws (3) and separate connecting rods (2) from crankshaft
(1).
Important
Take care not to mix up components of different connecting rods and maintain the original orientation.
Removing the connecting rod assembly
After separating the crankcase halves, remove the crankshaft (1) complete with connecting rods (2).
