Ducati SuperSport S Oil Change

[@elithegreat6463]

Thanks, thats a game changer that you don't have to remove fairings for a simple oil change...Nice !!

[@DucatiJocki]

Braden, thanks for taking the time to record and post this. I especially appreciate your attention to organization prior to beginning the job.

[@ThePrybra07]

Glad you enjoyed and thanks for the comment

[@loslobos5175]

Thanks for posting. Saved 500 bucks from the Stealership

[@KJcinemas]

Thank you for this!! Im used to wrenching on cars, strongly considering getting a supersport S and this eases my conscience on ducati maintanence prices hehe

[@cesarmathias9796]

Pro trick : you can watch series on flixzone. Been using them for watching a lot of movies recently.

[@pmdinaz]

You had me at 'you don't have to take off any fairings to change the filter'. Smart on Ducati's part. Thank you!!! Valve service interval seems to be 30K Km or roughly 18,500 miles. That's very nice as well. I'm sure it's expensive to have done, but less frequently required still saves money in the long run. This is a contender to replace my 09 Speed Triple! I love the looks of this bike. Cheers!

[@ThePrybra07]

The new version on the bike you can't get to the filter without removing fairings. For the valve adjustment my dealership quoted me around 1300$ for that service

[@patrickfitzgerald3747]

Thanks, very helpful. You could use a 17mm long bolt with 2 nuts locked together if you can't get that special tool.

[@ThePrybra07]

Yeah that would work as well.

[@shaunbarber2746]

Thank you good sir.... service light can just stay on

[@YevgenyMorozov]

Just did my first OC on '21 SS. Everything was easy as pie, except for those pesky small fairing retainers, they were slightly different shapes and sizes so I would recommend taping them to the fairing where they came from or at least note which is which. Also, in my case, one somehow got lost, or perhaps it was missing to begin with... Putting the fairing back really took most of the time, the oil itself took just 5 min, really... Taking the plastic mesh filter inside is probably an overkill/overengineering, as there were hardly anything on it at all, I guess its there in case if there is a serious major damage happening so that you can see it before the engine seizes on you at 100mph(?). I would almost not bother with it as there was hardly any oil drained from there and its plug. Just do the small magnetic plug and the filter. BTW the torque specs are: 1. Main oil drain plug = 20Nm (This wrongly quoted as 42Nm in some Ducati workshop manuals and owners ended up rounding out the rather small hex) 2. Oil screen drain plug = 42Nm 3. Oil screen = 42Nm (it was the same on my ST4s and always seemed helluva tight to me when I came to loosen it!) 4. Oil filter = 11Nm

[@TheJosa007]

Thank you for taking the time to note the torque specs

Great video! Thanks for sharing.

[@JS-fb6ww]

Okay great perfect very informative video. Now how does one reset the oil light?

[@ThePrybra07]

Unfortunately you have to pay a dealer to clear the code...

[@JS-fb6ww]

@@ThePrybra07 they no likey to do that. Stealership likes it when people pay $400 for an oil change. I've heard of stories where people call in to get the oil light reset and the dealership scolds them for doing the oil change and tries to tell them they voided the warranty by doing it themselves even though the Magnuson moss warranty act says otherwise. Right to repair!!!

[@DucatiChucho]

Thank you for the video. Where did you get the crush washers?

[@ThePrybra07]

There was a Ducati parts website. Can't remember the name of it but they were only a few dollars each

[@ssmith954]

very useful, thanks for posting!

[@TheJosa007]

Is there a shop where you like to buy your parts? what is the device you mounted on the left grip besides the magnetic phone holder? Thank you very much

[@ThePrybra07]

The controller on the left is for the heated grips. As for parts where ever I could get them cheapest.

[@punisher6001]

Have a he same bike. I observed how clean is the exhaust section. How do you clean it? Querosene? Nice video, thanks.

[@ThePrybra07]

I've used brake cleaner

[@germangallego922]

Hi. Good video. Please, could you indicate to me in writing the tightening torques of the screws. With my level of English, I am not able to correctly understand the exact torque. I can't find any technical information about this motorcycle. Thank you

[@johnnyhotpie985]

Could you post spark plugs removal?

I was planning on it however, I sold the bike

[@TheWatchFrogs]

Also did you have to start the bike and get it warm before you started doing this? I didn't understand the beginning

[@ThePrybra07]

Yes I warmed the engine before so the oil would be less viscous

[@craigsbook]

Hey Braden, what were your search words for that hex shank on Amazon? Can't find it. I could use a 3/8" drive hex socket duct taped to the extension, but even that runs the risk of dropping hex socket in the engine. Would love that tool.
