    Question for those who fitted the dp fuel cap

    This might be a funny question! My dealer fitted the dp fuel cap, and it is slightly off centre, and it just started bugging me! . I know, a little OCD but I can't help it! The writing itself is in line, but the cap is slightly off to the left. For those that fitted themselves, is...

    For Sale Panigale fuel tank, slight rash!

    I was planning on stripping this tank to bare aluminum, as some others have done....but have since sold the bike. The tank is in great shape with the exception of the scrape on the side. Yes, it still holds fuel! How about $495.00 (OBO), plus shipping?

    Respect the low fuel light

    Ducati doesn't .... around with the low fuel light on the Panigale. Pushing it to the gas station. Got it 29km after the low fuel light came most of my bikes in the past at least had another 50km before running dry. Live and learn.

    Driven D-axis fuel cap

    Hello, has anyone here installed one on their 1199? Curious to see any pics or opinions. My install went ok, but as it sits- the gap around the edge allows you to see the vent hose. Wondering if this is normal? My install went as follows: -left green OEM rubber sealing pad in place...

    Ethanol in fuel damages engines

    Happened to stumble upon this on A&R... interesting read BTW.. EPA Admits Ethanol Damages Engines Since pretty much every pump in the nation has 10% ethanol mixed in the gas, am wondering if this would have long term repercussions in the petroleum industry or in auto manufacturing..

    Fuel Consumption

    All, Just wondering if anyone would know if having the engine setting on WET would increase the fuel consumption for long trips? For those have done long trips what did you find worked the best? Thanks

After a 40 mile ride and stopover at a friend's house, i was warming the bike up to take off again and noticed a steady stream of clear fluid leaking from the bottom of the bike where the radiator fan sits.

    So you guys running race fuel in your 1199? Going for my 600mi service on Saturday then I'm gonna take some of my VP Racing MR12 and get the 1199 on the dyno hopefully. I've run MR12, MS100, VP109 in a lot of my other bikes always noticed my bikes had a better punch with it.

    Fuel cap back-compatibility?

    Hi all I'm aware that Supersports and Superbikes right up to the 1198 (with the exception of the XX9s) have 'the same' gas cap. Aftermarket caps for one model will fit the others. Can anyone tell me for certain if the Panigale also has the same fuel cap as the earlier bikes? If so, a world...

    Picking an Exhaust and Fuel Tuning

    As the delivery of Austin and Akra exhausts near, I wanted to post some thoughts to see if we can get some consensus on how to properly compare exhausts so that everyone can make better buying decisions. There are really two things that have to be considered with respect to which non-standard...

    Serious Fuel Leak After Engine Replacement

    Well I bought my 1199 on December 13 and put 167 miles on it before I noticed an oil leak dripping from the exhaust. I call the dealer about it and they come and pick it up and take a look at it. They end up replacing the entire engine. I took the bike out a few times since getting it back...

    Paint fading/hazing on fuel tank

    My Pani is 7 months old and I've done around 2,400km. I've noticed the paint seems to be fading, or more accurately hazing, around the fuel tank hard edges. I've never placed anything on it, it's almost as if the paint has hazed from wind resistance or something. Has anyone else got the same...

    How many miles before fuel light comes on.

    My only complaint so far with this bike is the fuel light. The level indicator seems to be in a spot that is effected by hard turns and wheelies. Ive run outa gas once already, and the fuel light has only come on for a second. I think part of my problem is cause the stealership reset my mileage...
