oil

Wired mine this past weekend at Chuckwalla...just ran the wire to the plastic molding 2 inches from the plug. Is there a better anchor? Any pics? Also, to wire the caliper bolts...are you using aftermarket bolts instead of the round-headed stock ones?

I installed my GB Racing covers, when I removed the bolts some oil came out which is fine since I was doing an oil change anyway. When I reinstalled everything I have a very slow oil leak from one of the bottom bolts for the clutch cover side. I have few questions: * Does this clutch...

Hello, I am new to the forum so please forgive me if I am not following the correct protocol. I spent several hours searching on the forum to get the info I was looking for and could not. I have had my bike for a little over a year. It is a standard 2012 1199 Panigale. I purchased used...

To those that do their oil changes, what do you do about the count down until next oil change ?

I woke up this morning to go to the dealer to get them to check my brakes and chain. Low and behold the bike will turn over chug like a Harley for a few seconds then shut right off. It will restart everytime but not run. There is a big oil smell from the exhaust after the 3rd time of starting...

as the title says. Cost new is $159 (+ delivery)(add paypal fee if paid as business transaction) CORRECTION, OIL AND CLEANER NOT INCLUDED (FLAMMABLE, WONT DELIVER), so $120 is just the filter...

If you put to much oil is it bad.. Think my dealer put about 100ml extra (1/10 quartz).. It sits few mm above windows.. I now have remove some just in case but curious to know if there is damage

I was told that a lot of the oil pumps on te race bikes are letting go, meaning new engine pretty much. Has me skeptical about mine, mines only a road bike but how often should the oil pumps be checked or O rings replaced? Since it's a massive thing and if they screw up shouldn't they be checked...

1400 miles, and after a weekend of hard riding the bike developed a head gasket oil leak. Apparently this is a common issue. Talked to dealer and will be covered by warranty. Other issue, the gears became a little more tricky to engage at times as the heat built up. I'll have them check that...

Since warranty is over and due to time constraints it is a huge inconvenience for me to take her in for 7500 mile oil change So I decided to do it myself. After hearing about the Oil filter "cap" being a bitch I decided to loosen it first before draining the oil therefore if I can't remove it I...

Has anyone ever been able to locate the torque value for this ? I have just read the whole change oil thread anti hero put up. BTW Xbox thanks for the tip re the oil pump empty. cheers PS Just doing an oil change while fitting my Akra.:D

Just curious, because when I had my base 1199 it didn't seem to have burned much, but my R seemed to have burnt more and was low in the sight glass. What is the ideal level in the glass? Thanks

Have you guys seen this before? My bike was serviced less than 1000 miles ago and I recently topped the oil up with the same oil (according to the Ducati dealer) that was used for the service. The bike had been stood for about a week but I've never seen this kind of two tone effect before...

The dealer called me today after I complained to Ducati that they put 10w/40 synthetically modified engine oil in mine instead of 15w/50 FULL synthetic on the 1000 mile service, and overfilled by 20%, to report to me THAT Ducati asked them to call me and say its OK, so I guess we can save some...

Well ladies and gentleman its about that time again to change the oil and our friends at K&N now make an oil filter for the 1199 (12 bucks too). The problem is the O rings and washer. K&N doesnt seem to make those or are they built in the filter? Am i really going to have to go to ducati for...

Has anyone found an oil retention pan for the Akro exhaust?

Just had my oil and filter done, had the indicator wiring loom added under warranty and ECU updated, well the update has transformed the bike, smoother round town and feels far more responsive under hard throttle, 2nd gear up hill on the way home opened up as per usual and nearly flipped her...

My oil is above the full mark. Was done at delear. I looked at my rsv4 and the same with that both done at delear , is this bad or nah? Obviously iv made sure bike is hot and long ride then waited to cool off then checked .

My 2012 is in the shop for a oil and coolant leak. The initial findings were that the bike was leaking oil and coolant from a coolant weep hole on the forward head. DNA sent a rep to look at the bike last week and decided to try and repair the leak. After a 3 full days of pulling the...

Is there a way to keep the fan while installing the oil retention pan for racing? Is the fan needed?
