you don't have to remove the breather hoses or cover, just disconnect the hoses at the vent nipples on the tank and move entire tank to a table / surface on side of bike, you don't need to disconnect the fuel lines either they will stretch / move

Hi there, i just bought a ducati 696 with just 1 key and no one can make me a coppy, how do i get that electronic code, i have no electronic code from the seller. Thank you

First off, maaaaan. What a tedious job this was, just finished it (took about 4 hours). Mind you, I still recommend people trying this out because it was eye opening and you learn a lot about your bike. For the longest time, I couldn’t get those hex bolts out with the wrench because I didn’t have the right size, until I remembered that my monster came with its own tool bag (under the seat) that has every tool in it you need to work on the bike. Also, your tutorial was awesome man. I used it to replace the battery and you brought up everything perfectly. That one side plug that you mention behind the frame, I couldn’t find it before prying off the tank , but as soon as I attempted to pry it off, I saw it. I don’t think you need to remove it but I did just in case. Really easy to spot. Thanks again for making this.

To my Monster 696 i TryAll the Tyme and wen I try the second time With a second key come Prog off… kann me Help please?

Thank you for the video. However mine has a connection for the charger already installed under the seat (in Australia)

Ut Tang, I know you no longer have this bike, but thank you for such a fantastic video. I did it perfectly with no problems ( helped me fit a trickle charger ). Funny thing too, it already has one but was so well hidden I didn’t see it ha-ha. Oh well I had fun.

i need pincode monster 2015 no key card plis

Great video. I have to replace my battery on my 796 and wondered where it is located. I have only had the bike for a few days now. Quite the process for sure compared to my other bikes.

Too complicated

what size allen wrench or hex key tool did you use?

This helped me out a ton on my 2014 796! Thanks so much!

How much cost to change oil and breaks to 2013 ducati monster 696

You can just pull the breather hose on the tank end.

Great vid! Thank you!!

I guess it makes sense to do this job with the tank almost empty ha... do you mind if I ask why you don't have the bike anymore? I'm thinking of purchasing a 2009 696. Is it worth getting it? I just want to upgrade from a 2011 Ninja 250R. Thanks.

What kind of oil and filter do you use?

I really enjoyed your clear instructional video and would like to see more maintenace videos from you in a playlist. Thanks.

Not close enough to help me :(

Incredibly helpful, thanks

THEY MAKE AN ADAPTER CABLE THAT PLUGS ONTO THE OEM PLUG THAT GOES TO THE BATTERY AND THEN THE "BATTERY TENDER" THE ADAPTER CABLE CAN BE PURCHASED ON EBAY.

I hope I don't have to do all this just to get to the battery cables to re-charge the battery????

why didnt you just use theOEM battery charger cable?

will this work with ducati streetfighter 2012??

Brilliant thanks for your video, great help

Hi, i've seen your video and did this to my '10 Monster 1100S. They problem is that when I insert key "1" for the second time, it should say "prog OK", but it doesn't. It keeps asking for the key and counting from 25. Any idea how to solve this problem?

Appreciate the effort of putting this up! Helped me a lot when switching the battery on my 696. This clip as a reference when working was perfect. Thank you! :)

Thank you for this! I was able to program a new spare key for my 2011 Monster Evo. Bought OEM key from Ducati Newport Beach ($70) and had it cut at local lock smith ($30).

Thanks for Your help, its really helpfully video. Thank for sharing your skills.

have the tank to be emtpy?

Thanks for the videos brother! I am now the current owner of this bike! Nearly 5000 miles on it now :-)

Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video. It was a huge help.

Excellent vid man. Now I know what I should have done before I failed to get into the battery.

Where can I buy these tool and the consumables in Thailand ?

I had metal shavings I found on my drain plug but this dont seem right to have them in the oil?

Hi Ut, do you still own this bike?

How does one remove the seat itself? I'm stuck on step 0. :)

Very helpful video! Valid for my 1100 Evo too. Thanks!

You forgot the most important and hardest part .. How to ensemble the locking system ... Everything else is great!!!

isnt it easier to just disconnect the hoses where the gas cap is? instead of taking out the hoses from the bike.

hello, I have a model 2009 Ducati monster and I have a key symbol in front Tablets I think this symbol to the drain I made my drain but I do not know how the etap for delivery to zero

Why did you get rid of your Ducati?

where can i buy the drain plug and screen filter plug crush washers?

Thank you so much for posting this video. I've decided not to do that myself...

I'm glad this helps you guys out. Unfortunately I don't have the bike any more. :( Enjoy yours!

Excellent! I'm from brasil and your video just save me right now ! thank you.

Thank you for posting such a thorough. Just installed my Evo Tech Fender Eliminator on my Monster 796 with help from this video!

Much thanks for this mate. I bought a 2011 796 ABS with one key (and codecard) and this worked exactly as shown in the vid. I got a genuine original blank key c. 70USD (i paid 90AUD at the dealer, not bad!). Then got the key cut by a generic locksmith ('sidecut' ability needed [can also have specialist auto locksmiths do it off the mechanical code shown on the codecard], it's done on a machine that copies the original exactly) - they did it while i waited, then I programmed the two keys exactly as shown. Not only did this save me approx $160AUD, but it saved the hassle of taking the bike over to the dealer for them to grossly overcharge on something that takes a first-timer maybe three minutes to do. jokers. Thanks again. WORKS AS SHOWN LADS! - bit crazy you can do this yourself thru the dash, but can't clear the service light hey? ;) aahh, ducati...

Thank you. Beautifully made and thoughtful.

Thanks for vid!! Great explanation - and coverage. Sorry for cussing at you all night since you made it look so easy... took me about an hour and a half. ;)

Hi Ut tang- i bought 2014 ducati monster 696 right now it is almost 520 mile on it- is it really necessary to do full service or just change oil. Because Dealer wants to do full services. it cost $350, and there is other thing -how you took maintains sign off from the meter? - I need your advise ASAP-
