Check engine oil level
Check the engine oil level through the sight glass (1)
on the clutch cover.
Oil level should be between the marks on the sight
glass. If the level is low, top up with engine oil.
Ducati prescribes the only use of SAE 15W-50/JASO
MA2 oil and recommends the use of Shell Advance
DUCATI 15W-50 Fully Synthetic Oil.
Remove the oil filler plug (2) and top up until the oil
reaches the required level. Refit the plug.

Shell Advance DUCATI 15W-50 Fully Synthetic Oil.
Engine oil and oil filters must be changed by a
Ducati Dealer or Authorised Service Centre at the
intervals specified in the scheduled maintenance
