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.

Noise and exhaust emission control
system information
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 ...
