oil

Im changing my oil and oil filter, I noticed that the oil filter cover is threaded once the two 8mm bolts are removed. I'd like to try and fit screws to the threads and screw them in slowly as a means of removing the oil filter cover. I used two picks last time and it was a pain in the nuts...

Hey guys anyone seen this leak pattern on their bike yet? I haven't had the chance to pull the right side fairing off to investigate. The oil appears to be weeping through the lower right side fairing seem. I've wiped it clean only to have it reappear after riding again. The dealer just...

This is driving us f*cking crazy... :mad: We've had oil leaking from the bike from numerous places from day one. Generator cover, valve cover gasket, and heat exchanger... Feels like we're putting out fires here all the time. Once one leak is fixed, another shows up... And what really annoys...

Just had an oil service and had to remove approx 250ml of oil when i got home as the Ducati dealership had overfilled it. So far I have had 3 services and on two occasions (different Ducati dealerships) the bike has been over filled by 250ml. Have I been unlucky or is this a common problem...

Found out today 899 does not take the same oil filter as the 1199... The 899 is actually the same as the Super Leggera ..The difference is that the 899/SL filter centre hole is smaller...this means that if you use the 1199 filter in either of the other 2 bikes your oil is not being...

When you change the oil and reset the service interval on the bike how many miles does it say between services. I just had my bike at fast by ferraci and I could swear it was the same number. I'm talking about the green oil thing that comes up on the dash when its starting up usually says...

Hi folks, I took delivery of my Panigale 1199s over a month ago. Have been enjoying the unusual spring weather, and got it through its first service. Coming from an S1000RR (and previously an 1198s) I absolutely love the bike. It is even comfortable considering I am 6'3!! Just parked up...

Hey guys, Could you please give me more information about this issue?

Dears, I ve been having engine oil leaks since day1 basically and after fixing the oil pan and tightening the valve cover bolts I have new one now 'somewhere in the engine'. I always have engine oil above the max level. Reason being if it burns oil I wont be stuck somewhere with my oil...

.... yeah! Now would you go to Pro Italia, or Southern California Motorcycle for service. I bought it at Bert's brand new in July. They did the 1st service at 621 miles and I ain't going back there. Bikes been good till now, just turned 1800 miles.

I have a 2012 1199 base with about 4,100 miles, and it will smoke very slightly on start up. However if I don't let it fully warm up before shutting it down, it will blow a lot of smoke the next time I start it. This will last a few seconds. It will also smoke if I blip the throttle before...

What have others experience with oil usage and when they need to add. I picked up my bike from the Dealer with 8 miles on it. I have seen a lot about smoking but my bike has had none. My only worry at first was the first 10 miles was in stop and go traffic. After that the remaining 90...

Nothing wrong with the OEM Panigale oil filter but wondering if anyone has come across an aftermarket unit for this bike? Tried a search on various forums and suppliers sites but to no avail. Thought they would be available by now.

Per the service manual - every two oil changes clean the oil pickup gauze filter (15,000 miles/24,000km). For those that have performed this maintenance did you find the mesh filter dirty or do you feel the interval could be extended?

Ok, so I have read and read, and read on this forum and the internet about the Panigale burning oil. Some people have it, some don't. Some have it bad, some have it a little"¦. Those who have it bad or a little, opine on this : So its a relatively new bike, 2050 miles. Broken in correctly...

Soon changing my oil and had a brain fart and put in 4 acts instead of 3.5 will I have too much pressure or am I ok?

Did I break it when I broke it in?! :eek: Seems like the "heat? What heat?!" topic has morphed into the "LEAK? What LEAK?!" issue. Not jumping to any conclusions, but let's see if break in technique correlates to any of the 1199 issues. Simple "a" "b" or "c" answers. For example, a,a,b...

I purchased my 2013 Tricolore 4 days ago. Today I noticed fluid leaking on my exhaust, next to the uppperside of the clutch and belly pan on ONLY the right side of the bike:mad: The bike has ONLY 60 miles on it and it is now leaking. I went to Ducati of Miami and was super pissed because...

Just thought you'd like to know.:p
