Lubricating cables and linkages<br />
The condition of the outer throttle and choke cables should<br />
be checked at regular intervals. The outer cables should<br />
show no signs of kinking or cracking. Operate the controls to<br />
make sure the inner cables slide smoothly inside the outer<br />
cables: if you feel any friction or catching, have the cable<br />
replaced by a <strong>Ducati</strong> Dealer or Authorized Service Centre.<br />
To prevent problems, periodically open the twistgrip<br />
housing by unscrewing the two bolts (1, fig. 59) and<br />
lubricate the ends of each control cable and the races<br />
with SHELL Advance Grease or Retinax LX2.<br />
Warning<br />
Close the twistgrip housing carefully, inserting the<br />
cable in the race.<br />
Refit the housing and tighten the bolts (1) to 10 Nm.<br />
To ensure smooth operation of the sidestand pivot, remove<br />
dirt and apply SHELL Alvania R3 grease to all friction points.<br />
