Ducati Diavel Owners Manual: Checking brake pads for wear
Check brake pads wear through the inspection hole in the callipers.
Change both pads if friction material thickness of even just one pad is about 1 mm.
Warning
Friction material wear beyond this limit would lead to metal support contact with the brake disc thus compromising braking efficiency, disc integrity and rider safety.
Important
Have the brake pads replaced at a ducati dealer or authorised service centre.
Checking brake and clutch fluid level
The levels should not fall below the min marks on the
respective reservoirs.
If the level is too low, air can get into the circuit, thus
impairing the efficiency of the system.

Lubricating cables and joints
Check the outer sheath of the throttle control and cold start
lever cables for damage at regular intervals. The outer plastic
cover should not be flattened or cracked. Operate the
controls to make ...

Refitting the side stand
Place the stand plate on the rear shock absorber support; bring adjuster (14)
in line with bracket (s) and start the screw
(12) in the nut behind the bracket (s).
Insert the screws (11), (3) and (10) fully home in this order, but do not
tighten.
Loosen the screw (12) with the relative nut ...
Fuel system circuit
The fuel system circuit consists of:
An electric pump, driven by the injection relay, which is in turn
controlled by the ecu (engine control unit)
A fuel filter
A pressure regulator
Two injectors (one per cylinder, located downstream of throttle valve)
The plastic mounting shown in t ...
Operating principle
The ducati abs brake system manages the front and rear brakes separately. A
pulse generator (phonic wheel), with a
ring of slots, is fixed onto each wheel. On the left calliper mounting bracket
of the front fork and on the rear brake calliper
holder plate are hall effect sensors which detect t ...
