cold

Gents, Recently on a few occasions my DRL refuses to switch itself on at cold starts. In the dash the DRL flashes on/off to indicate an error of some sort. Funny thing, if I restart the bike after this happens the DRL comes back on normally and doesn't suffer same glitch for the...

... they're cold. I'm sick for the 4th week in a row, working mostly out of my bed but today with the snow falling and temps dropping into the low teens here in SC, my BELLA had to move from the garage to the inside. Basement where the other bikes are, was not an option...

Hi All. Today I wanted to start the engine of my 1199 after longest keeping in cold environment. Average temp was always -1..0 *C but I had the maintenance for battery and the current was good (13V). When I turned on the key the dashboard informed me about cold temperature (ICE Logo)...

Hi Guys, Was trying to find similar topic in the forum but could not find exactly what was looking for. So due to the fact that I do live in Poland where 10-15 deg Celsius is a norm and summer time last for approximately 3 month with average temp of 20-22deg is anyone in the forum that can...

Has anyone tried any hand guards on the 1299? I'm looking to extend my riding season, and my hands are the weakest link. I already have great winter gloves (REV'IT! Aquila H2O), but the wind still gets to me about 30 minutes into my commute. So, have you tried any of the options from...

So maybe every 1 cold start in 10, my bike will show random errors on the dash. By cold start I mean the coolant temp will show as "LOW". The ones i often see are BBS, CAN Line, ABS. But they quickly disappear and don't reappear until the next unlucky cold start. Bike is fine otherwise and...

Just come back from a ride on my 1299s and was checking the bike over and noticed these marks on the rear tyre. What is it? Cold tear? A tad concerned as I haven't done anything different to any other ride out!

I took the scenic route to Colorado Springs from Denver and it was a bit on the cold side once I got into the wooded areas, 45-50F, but my heated seats kept me nice and toasty! No complaints today. What a great bike!!!

So i was riding along and someone pulled up and said " i had a Ducati 748 and your bike sounds totally 100% different then mine did" come to think he is right, this Panigale sounds way off to traditional Ducs... No dry clutch rattle, no Desmo valve clatter, no choppy pop...pop exhaust...

Exactly as the title states.. Your thoughts from personal experience. It gets really cold here and wet during the winter. I need one set of gloves for the Winter Season. I do not mind buying from Europe so please chime in.....

I finally got heated clothing for commuting, I purchased a First Gear Heated Jacket liner (65 watt): Firstgear Heated Jacket Liner - RevZilla Then I got a troller (weird name) so I could adjust the heat. I am wearing it under my Spidi jacket: Spidi Marathon H2OUT Jacket - RevZilla I...

I noticed that my 1199, above all the bikes I have ridden, has quite gritty gears when cold (and this is CA cold - which is basically warm :D ). After a few gear changes everything goes back to normal. Did anyone else experience that on a 1199?

... resulted in quite a bit of excitement: save - YouTube saved it :D (BTW, love the exhaust tone of every combustion in the slo-mo)

Hi all, I just got my Panigale S yesterday. Something I noticed when starting the bike today morning - I had to crank it quite a bit to get it going. ~10 seconds of holding the starter with intermittent throttle didn't do it. a few seconds of pause and tried again - and probably took another...

Base Panigale with 200 miles running great when parked 5 days ago and put on trickle charge. Put key in ignition this morning and a loud fan starts up with the "Engine!" red idiot light on the display. Bike turns over but will not fire up (at any throttle setting). Left the bike (in disgust) and...

34 degrees out, the instructor is warning all riders that there could be ice around the track. Face shield mostly fogged up at 155 mph When I entered the track the dash is warning me of possible ice....... Bike worked great, luckily there were cars there to run the track in and create a...

Hey guys, anyone else have trouble finding Neutral when the engine is cold. I should say that it doesn't want to go into N at all when engine is cold. Sometimes the display flickers between N and 2. But it's fine when the engine is warm/hot. bit of a pain the ass. software? fixable?

I am starting to second guess myself about this bike. Being on the waiting list gives one time to think about the pros and cons, less of an impulse buy. I have had my share of Ducatis so I understand what its like to be at a light with other riders checking out your bike only for it to stall...
