hot

Ok my bike has been to the dealer twice in the past month for a hot start problem. Just cranks and tries to start, then it floods itself. The first time they "reset to Ducati paramiters" which obviously wasn't a fix, second time changed spark plugs and told me I have to use "mid grade fuel"...

Hi all, I'm new. My bike long cranks and I smell gas on hot restarts. I live in Tucson az and its not hit the triple digits yet. Just hit 400 miles on odometer. Seems almost like an injector is leaking down.... Some tips? Thanks in advance for any help! Btw, I love the machine ;)...

I was riding on OEM pipes on 80 degree weather in Los angeles a couple of weeks ago and almost had 2nd degree burn on my right inner lower leg from the heat coming from the pipes and header. Heat is unbearable. Called up the dealership and suggested an upgrade that will cover the header and...

So with all the people on here saying that the 1199 runs to hot, well I LOVE how hot it runs. This morning I had the pleasure of riding to work in 35*F weather, the bike even told me that there could of been ice out! No complaints here with how hot it runs! It kept nice and warm....well not...

I had my full termi' system pulled from my Tricolore, stripped down, Jet Hot - Ceramic coated (inner and outer), polished and then re-assembled and put back on the bike. Not a cheap nor quick exercise. Thanks to iiifv for being the first to turn me on to Jet Hot coating. Deep respect to the...

1199s is the first ducati that i have, previously i got the S1000RR, ZX10R, K1200R, R1150RT..... I always believe "One must got to have at least one Ducati in our lives". But after I rode on it for 30 min at 30c outdoor temperature in city speed around 60klm, I start struggle whether this...

While cleaning my bike yesterday I noticed what initially looked like a wet spot or oil on the lower/fwd portion of my mud guard. Upon closer inspection, I could see the sheen was actually melted plastic, bubbles and all. I'll be posting pics later when I return from the dealer. I live and ride...

As some of you may know, I've suffered the "hard-starting when hot" issue since the first 1,200 mile weekend when I picked up my bike. The issue existed with stock exhausts and continues with the Termi full-system and gets progressively worse the hotter it gets outside. (100+ F this weekend...

Anyone tried Jet Hot on the exhaust to see if it would help ?

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...

It's been well established that the 1199 needs to have her oil checked frequently during break-in. According to the manual, you're supposed to check the oil when the bike is cold. I'm planning on riding her 300 miles on day one (and another 300 miles on day 2)...so my question is how am I...
