Ducati Diavel Owners Manual: Coverage
Warranty defects shall be remedied during customary business hours at any authorized ducati motorcycle dealer located within the united states of america in compliance with the clean air act and applicable regulations of the united states environmental protection agency and the california air resources board. Any part or parts replaced under this warranty shall become the property of ducati.
In the state of california only, emissions related warranted parts are specifically defined by that state’s emissions warranty parts list. These warranted parts are: carburetor and internal parts; intake manifold; fuel tank, fuel injection system; spark advance mechanism; crankcase breather; air cutoff valves; fuel tank cap for evaporative emission controlled vehicles; oil filler cap; pressure control valve; fuel/ vapor separator; canister; igniters; breaker governors; ignition coils; ignition wires; ignition points, condensers, and spark plugs if failure occors prior to the first scheduled replacement, and hoses, clamps, fittings and tubing used directly in these parts. Since emission related parts may vary from model to model, certain models may not contain all of these parts and certain models may contain functionally equivalent parts.
In the state of california only, emission control system emergency repairs, as provided for in the california administrative code, may be performed by other than an authorized ducati dealer. An emergency situation occurs when an authorized ducati dealer is not reasonably available, a part is not available within 30 days, or a repair is not complete within 30 days. Any replacement part can be used in an emergency repair. Ducati will reimburse the owner for the expenses, including diagnosis, not to exceed ducati’s suggested retail price for all warranted parts replaced and labor charges based on ducati’s recommended time allowance for the warranty repair and the geographically appropriate hourly labor rate. The owner may be required to keep receipts and failed parts in order to receive compensation.

Source of emissions
The combustion process produces carbon monoxide and
hydrocarbons. Control of hydrocarbons is very important
because under certain conditions, they react to form
photochemical smog when subjected to sunlight.
Carbon monoxide does not react in the same way, but is
toxic. Duca ...
