Ducati Diavel Service Manual: Disassembly of structural components and the frame
Before carrying out dimensional checks on the frame, you must remove all the superstructures fitted, referring to the removal procedures outlined in the sections of this manual.
The rear subframes (2) and (3) are structural components of the frame (1).
Both serve to support motorcycle superstructures and must therefore be in perfect condition.
The following flow chart illustrates the logical sequence in which the parts are to be removed from the motorcycle and a reference to the section where the removal procedure is described.
Refitting is the reverse of removal.
