@feiz01 Yes, works fine.
is semi synth v twin oil grade 20w50 ok for a ducati ss1000ds? cheers mate
On the new engines, it is behind the cover with the large hex socket in it.
No. It does catch large debris from the engine. A lot of people will check this and freak out over the debris on it and then the sky is falling and they’re afraid to ride.
This fills up the oil filter… once the engine stops, the overall oil level will be a little bit lower. Also it helps to notice if the oil filter is leaking.
Got me … we don’t do diesels.
Motul choses not to use a popular “lubricating metal” that are found in all other motor oils.
can i ask why u say no motul
Thank you sir. Do you think a CI grade (diesel) 5W-40 fully synthetic will work? I think it might help with soot handling. Your thoughts?
Excellent video, thank you very much. (I’ve just succesfully completed oil change on my new ’01 Monster 750, and I’m not much of a mechanic..)
Tell me, why did you start the engine in the midle of the process? THX!
Thank you!
So the oil filter screen doesn’t need to be checked with every oil change?
Hello, I own Cagiva Elefant with Ducati L-twin 650 engine, I had a problem with taking out the old filter(very tighten)and finding a proper tool, I have one extra small oil filter on the left of the big one (it’s like a net), it seems they removed it on the newer engines. By the way you make very good videos,sorry for bad english.
nice, and very informative. thanks
Easy: build small coffee table and use a loading ramp to park the bike on it. You can buy a wheel vice from handyindustries dot com –> /shop/product_view.asp?idProduct=1154&D=1&S=22 We can arrange to sell you one of these, if desired.
Hi, thanks for writing. I recommend any semi- or full-synthetic. Mobil1 car oil is good. Any brand is great and recommended; however I decline from recommending Motul, as independent chemical analysis of that brand has shown Motul does not include one of the lubricating metals that are found in all other motor oils.
The 10w40 weight is suggested by most builders I talk to.
Chris
Good! All I need is something to lift my bike onto to make life easy.
Very Useful, thank You.. and I have a Question.. what should be the best oil for a Ducati 800ss? Sinthetic? any good brand?
Hi Mars,
Yeah, if a person starts with 4 qts and then only fills to the bottom of the window, knowing 3.1 v 3.9 isn’t an issue, yes?
Chris
recomended to refer to the manual for amount of oil as this is varies depending on engine size. eg
620cc 3.1 liters
900cc 3.9 liters of oil.
thank you for this tech vid as it is helpful for those do it yourself mid way services.
@Ludo: An old trick for removing a tricky oil filter: use a hammer to punch a screwdriver (or awl) right through the side of the filter. Now you have something to grab! The old filter is trash anyway, right?
It’s a bit trickier on these bikes since most of the filter is recessed, but it still works. A few years ago I cut my hand on a bike badly enough to require sutures, because my strap wrench slipped. Since then I won’t use them and rely on the screwdriver trick. The K&N filters with built-in nut are great, too.
