Tips on how to select the intervention level
Excellent operation of the DWC system, for all
available levels, is ensured only with the OE final
drive and with OE tyres and/or with the ones
recommended by Ducati. The use of tyres of
size and characteristics to the original tyres
may alter the operating characteristics of the system
thus making it unsafe. It is recommended not to
install tyres of size than the ones approved
for your vehicle.
At level 4 the DWC system reduces the motorcycle's
proneness to do wheelies to a minimum level and
sensitively intervenes in case of wheelie. Between
level 4 and level 1 there are intermediate
levels of intervention for the DWC. Levels 1 and 2
allow easier wheelies, but reduce their speed: these
levels are recommended only for track use and for
riders who can control wheelies on their own
and exploit the system feature that reduces the
speed at which the front wheel tends to
The choice of the correct level mainly depends
on the following parameters:
●
The rider's experience;
●
The characteristics of the path/circuit (bend exit
with low or high gear engaged).
The rider's experience
The choice of level depends greatly on the
riders' experience and ability to control wheelies on
their own. Levels 1 and 2 require a great experience
to ensure proper control.
Level depends on type of track
If the track/path features bends where out speed
and gear are low, a lower level will be necessary;
while a track/path with faster bends will allow the
use of a higher level
Tips for use on the track
We recommend to use level 4 for a couple of full laps
in order to get used to the system. Then try levels 3,
2, etc., in succession until you identify the DWC
sensitivity level that suits you best (always try each
level for at least two laps to allow the tyres to warm
up).
