Just a quicky, picking my bike up Friday, was going to get some Top up oil, what should I put in it?? or should I ask the garage where I bought it from to see what they serviced it with?? it an 02 748 E, and its red not yellow, so that will prob make a difference
I use Silkolene 10W/40 and am perfectly happy with it, I didn't realise 10W/50 was recommended although I remember Topitoo saying thats what he was using.
From the Ducati.com website
Ducati uses Shell Advance Ultra with SAE 10W-40 Grade in all of its models.
Don't you just love the Italians. It specifically states in the manual I have 15W 50. it also states in the dealers own workshop manual for most models 15W 50. The dealer also refused to put the 10W 40 that I'd bought into the bike, something about kanckering the rocker arms.
