Brake system If you find excessive play on brake lever or pedal and brake pads are still in good condition, contact your Ducati Dealer or Authorised Service Centre to have the system inspected and any air drained out of the circuit. Checking brake pads for wear (fig. 64) 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. E Brake and clutch fluid can damage paintwork and plastic parts, so avoid contact. Hydraulic oil is corrosive; it may cause damage and lead to severe injuries. Never mix fluids of different qualities. Check that the seals are in good condition. 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. Have the brake pads replaced at a Ducati Dealer or authorised Service Centre. Warning Important MIN MIN fig. 64 75
