Ducati Diavel Owners Manual: Tips for use on the track
We recommend level 8 be used for a couple of full laps (to allow the tyres to warm up) in order to get used to the system. Then try levels 7, 6, etc., In succession until you identify the dtc intervention level that suits you best (always try each level for at least two laps to allow the tyres to warm up).
