Ducati Panigale 899 dash and electronics explained

I explain the adjustable electronics settings that come with the Ducati 899 Panigale. EBC, DTC, ABS and the 3 riding modes of Wet, Sport and Race among others. I also show you the sweet Lap time GPS recording function. Note: I have a slip of the tongue moment and refer to the oil light as a fuel light at one point in the video, I have no video editing software so this was a one take, live recording mishap sorry.

What a lot of pish, far too much nonsense talk for no reason! I hate these videos where people just talk, talk, talk! Get to the point man! 🤦‍♂️

Awsome video. The WET mode sounds like a very good choice for beginners, i really like that.

[@jordanammanshmesani]

wet mode feels like riding a ninja 250

[@abyb1923]

Wet mode makes women dry af.

[@christopherluciousclark8723]

Thanks you but I would have liked to see the specific buttons you push to run through setting and changes things. Even simple like clock and race mode etc.

[@skationship7056]

U explain about the bike with the stick in your hand look like a math teacher on the white board .

[@krssnoop]

Thanks mate that helped, getting mine in a few weeks.

[@keyboardheroics]

krssnoop Awesome news, if you're like me you'll have trouble sleeping in the last week before you get it and you'll worry that the bike can't possibly live up to your expectations but it will.

[@krssnoop]

Yes its hard to sleep at times I need to relax everything will be ok.

[@krssnoop]

keyboardheroics The bikes amazing, can you tuck the mirrors in (do they bend)? didnt want to break anything.

[@keyboardheroics]

Great to hear! Yeah I brushed past mine once it caught my jacket so I know it bends. At the join right at the base there of the stalk.

[@krssnoop]

Great thanks

[@Angelrivera-sunshine]

Now how you change DTC ABS setting? Good video btw, just don’t know how to change those

[@nickhedges3049]

I know this is an old video but I was wondering exactly what the bottom left number was when you turn the bike on? After it fully cycles thru the number changes to the time. Also can you find out your pin from the pin menu? Thanks!

[@tariqholder8818]

[@USERNAME8466]

Is quick shifter light comes on when u turn the bike on?

[@nickroyale6777]

Thank you very much for the detailed explanation.....! but is it possible to change the characteristic curve of the so called "100HP/WET-Mode" to "80" or "120" for example?

[@keyboardheroics]

Nick Royale you're welcome, it was a good idea for a video. I'm going to say yes to your question although I have seen no dyno graph readings to support this claim. In the settings menu that I showed at the very beginning of the video you will see the screen displaying the letters R.M. before I talked about the P.I.N screen. In this screen is where you can change the levels for each ride mode (wet, sport, race) to suit your preference, along with an engine setting of "High," Medium" or "low." While you can't dial in a specific horsepower rating, these computer settings change the throttle response so it is as if the engine has been dialed up or down as though you have changed the power output. These engine map settings are all available under each ride mode.

[@vadakootnikhil]

when you switched on your bike. The meter was showing 10700. Whats that???? at 1:10

[@nickhedges3049]

Just got an 899 and was wondering about this as well

[@Clark_808]

How do i save the settings thats all everyone needs ro know

[@tsp_zeusapexlegends7605]

what button do you use to personalize your driving modes, DTC on 1 for exemple?

[@steeleb2975]

Thank you for the excellent video and clear explanation of the modes. Do you use the quick shift often, Im getting ready to purchase an 899 but was just curious if you had any input on the functionality and use of this feature. It makes me nervous that its an electronic substitute for a mechanical clutch. Have you had any problems (malfunctions or other) with this feature, seems like it would be great when you have a passenger no jerking forward in-between gears and such. Thanks again

[@keyboardheroics]

Glad you enjoyed it. I love the quick shifter on this bike, one of my favourite things. Never had reliability issues with it. You do have to be going fairly quickly to use it though. Around town and the suburbs with lower rpm I clutch in and out still.

[@steeleb2975]

keyboardheroics thanks again for this video. just want to say this bike is amazing. not the fastest I've ever owned but by far the most fun and most responsive. this bike rides like I would imagine a motorcycle from the future would ride. It handles dangerously well. Again most amazing bike all around. way better than my 2014 848. not even close.

How to turn off DWC?

[@anthonyross3957]

Question. The two sounds on start up. What diagnostics are they running. Do you know?

[@keyboardheroics]

+Anthony Ross I have no idea on that one champ.

[@Shrekeo]

One is the fuel pump priming, the other is the exhaust valve doing a full cycle to check it's working.

You Know of the 899 is in comparisson to the z900 in Speed from 0-100 or in accerlation at Traffic light maybe? The z900 will win on 1vs1 Right?

[@fenf777]

No z9 definitely beaten by 899 for sure

[@tigrarulez]

is it normal for my ABS light staying on while on Neutral and idle???

[@patkawasaki771]

It needs a speed input to go out. Once the bike is rolling, the ABS light will go out if there are no problems.

[@kaustavpatro9041]

can u plz say me that 899 panigale has headlight on off switch or not?

[@keyboardheroics]

Kaustav Patro All motorcycles sold new in my country have automatic headlights so there is only a high beam switch. You could pull the fuse if you wanted no lights I guess.

[@pastrafumi]

keyboardheroics hey mate! thanks for the vids they are great... I'm currently evaluating the 899 as an option to buy. I have some questions regarding the DQS and perhaps you may help me... My questions are 1. whether the DQS is on all the time and 2. whether it is useful in all riding conditions or just when you are in the track or fast riding situations (what about daily riding conditions like traffic jams and so on). Also, 3. I´m wondering if it works when you are at full stop and engaging 1st gear from neutral, in that case, can you engage 1st gear clutchless or for first gear you need to use the clutch? Thanks in advance and keep the videos up... Cheers!!!

[@keyboardheroics]

Gustavo Pastrana Hi I find the DQS to be one of the most enjoyable things in the world, you can turn it on or off. When it is on you still don't have to use it! Mine is always on for when I want to clear off fast but for most of the time I use clutch shifts around town/suburbs. Use the clutch to engage first gear, after that it is up to the rider if you want to clutch shift or not. You don't want to short shift with DQS though, have some rpm built up and a clear road ahead of you first. This gearbox with it's short ratios and DQS is so much fun it's ridiculous, thanks for watching!

[@pastrafumi]

keyboardheroics​ wooow!!! you have given me pretty clear answers to my questions!! thanks a lot for your advice... it seems that the 899 it's a no brainer bike... thanks again and ride safe!!!

[@jordanammanshmesani]

+keyboardheroics what about down shifting, can you help me and explain! do you blip the throttle or just use ebc

[@GMH383]

Whats the first menu for the UNT one?

[@keyboardheroics]

GMH383 Good question. Australian Ducati models are set with the metric system so if I was to export the bike to the USA for whatever reason, I would change it to MPH and fahrenheit in the UNT option settings.

[@GMH383]

keyboardheroics Ohh ok thank's haha, I was messing around in the settings and played around in the UNT menu, got scared I might have messed some things up but guess it's all good! Cheers.

[@mikane24]

does the abs work with the foot break too?

[@keyboardheroics]

Paul DE GUZMAN It sure does, you won't lock a rear wheel unless you want to turn it off then you can slide all day long if you're into that.

[@jordanammanshmesani]

+keyboardheroics so if im in mode 3 abs I step on the rear brakes it activate both, or just the rear brakes.! what about abs 3 if I want to stop I use the front brakes and it locks both..? please help. im used to using the front brakes slightly around corners at high speed.

[@jordanammanshmesani]

+zico falcao I cant get an an answers till I go to ducati for break im service 40 miles away.

[@oliver8451]

0-60 or 0-130 miles, which one is faster, the 899 Panigale or the Yamaha R6. Furthermore, is the 899 strong enough for the streets, or is it worth buying the 1199/1299 Panigale?

[@keyboardheroics]

1199/1299 are overkill on the streets, many people do not like how they ride at legal speeds. The 899 is more at home on the street while still being a track focused bike at it's core. On a stop watch it is probably faster than all of the 600cc class with the exception of the Kawasaki 636 that's virtually identical.

[@oliver8451]

Yes, thank you for answering! But is it worth buying the 899? Keep in mind that the 1199 is nearly the same price, maybe 2000 $/€ more if you´re looking at used ones... Is there something better on the 899 compared to the 1199/1299?

[@keyboardheroics]

If you ride on a race circuit often and it's a big, fast flowing track then pick the 1199/1299. If you ride mostly on the street or you ride on a small circuit, the 899 is best.

[@anthonymcneal7605]

How do you turn on your dash light so you can see at night ??

[@keyboardheroics]

anthony mcneal The dash lighting is all automatic, it lights up day and night. You can changes the brightness if you want though. The factory settings I find are perfect for 20/20 vision people.

man these settings screwed up my riding style. now I cant downshift like I used to on my cbr, lot of electronics which is great for riding on a race track. but for me riding back and forth to work feels weird, I dont know if I have to use yhe clutch or the dqs, but I love the abs, but I dont know should I just use the front brake to lock both wheels or both , the way I learned to ride. too much good technology . bug im afraid to get used to.

[@keyboardheroics]

+zico falcao You don't need to clutch if you upshift with DQS on. ABS can be turned off if you don't like it or turned down to a lower lever. Once you get the settings set the way you like you will love it.

[@jordanammanshmesani]

+keyboardheroics I just have to get used to it I guess like you said. but man I cant get enough of it , its the best looking bike on the road. mine is white, but ad said, the mirrors and the no clear coat bothrs me.

[@PokeHut]

I'm in Aus too. I just got my full license and I'm considering the 899 for purchase... Insurance is a killer though.. I have a quick Q about the passcode. Could you use a code every time and do away with the key? That would be cool!

[@keyboardheroics]

+skee33z Yeah insurance is a bummer if you haven't had a full license for a year already they slug you big time, other option is to not insure it and ride it on weekends or to secure locations only if you have an alarmed shed etc. The code is to unlock the steering and access basic options in an emergency only, it won't start the beast up sadly.

[@RussNZ]

Im finding these videos really interesting. Thank you. While i dont have a 899 yet its been my dream bike since i set my eyes on it. Pity about the lack of fuel gauge though :( thought my GN250 didnt have one because its basic - a 2015 bike though.... i think it should be standard.

[@keyboardheroics]

Russ Campbell Glad you enjoyed them. The fuel gauge disappearance seems crazy at first especially coming from a Honda where common sense has it's DNA all over the bike. It's just a different way Ducati go about it, you still won't run out of fuel, 50km is plenty of time to find a service station and if you're doing a road trip set the trip computer to see how far you have gone on that tank, I pulled near 300km on a highway one time. You also get an average fuel consumption option too, although I ignore that I prefer the trip calculator and the fuel light methods. It all becomes second nature after a week I assure you.

[@nik26k]

fuel level?

[@keyboardheroics]

You get a light on the dash when you have a 50km range until empty.
