2005 Ducati Monster S2R Questions & Answers
Ducati monster s2r 800 2005 after big rain nex day
A couple of potentials here:
-water in the fusebox
-water in the ignition switch
-corrosion or bad contact at the starter
-blown fuse due to water intrusion
I lost a fuse myself on a cross country trip in a heavy rain storm. I lost the ignition and fuel pump fuse at 75 MPH is a blinding 38 degree rainstorm across Nebraska. My solution was blow it out the best I could, install one of my spares, and parked her inside the hotel lobby for 8 hours to let her warm up and dry out.
If you find water in any major contacts or fuseboxes, get an air gun on a compressor and blow them out WELL before installing a new fuse, or you're back in the same boat. The fuse box cover waterseal.... DOESN'T. (in my experience...)

S2r problems
A few things to check/do
* make sure there is no animals living in the airbox
make sure your idle is at or around 1200rpm +- 100rpm
*
start looking for someone in your area that can do a good fuel injection set-up
[/list]
what do the spark plugs look like? is sounds rich
the clicking and hissing is the fuel injectors and the air bypass , when the air bypass screws are out a bunch it can get loud. screwing these in will richen the bike and lower the idle. I would bet that they have been used to get the idle up and that is why they are loud.
The techtron will work fine as you have it. I doubt that it will help what you have described.
I would do the easy things yourself (new plugs and check air filter) and find someone to set up the fuel injection properly. plan on around 1-2 hours of shop time to set it up. They should also be able to read any codes if there is something wrong.
good luck
My ducati X diavel doesn't start how do I solve the problem?
When your 2016 Ducati X Diavel doesn't start, there are several steps you can take to try and diagnose and resolve the issue. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can follow:
1. Check the battery: Ensure that the battery is charged and in good condition. Check the battery connections to make sure they are secure and clean. If the battery is weak or faulty, consider charging or replacing it.
2. Ignition switch and kill switch: Verify that the ignition switch is turned on and the kill switch is in the "Run" or "On" position. Sometimes, these switches can accidentally get bumped or turned off, preventing the bike from starting.
3. Fuel level and fuel delivery: Confirm that there is enough fuel in the tank. Additionally, check for any clogged fuel filters or fuel lines that may be restricting fuel flow. If necessary, clean or replace these components.
4. Kickstand position: Some motorcycles have a safety feature that prevents the engine from starting if the kickstand is down. Ensure that the kickstand is fully retracted and try starting the bike again.
5. Spark plugs: Examine the spark plugs for any signs of fouling, wear, or damage. If needed, clean or replace the spark plugs according to the manufacturer's specifications.
6. Fuses: Inspect the fuses to see if any have blown. Replace any blown fuses with the appropriate type and rating.
7. Immobilizer system: If your Ducati X Diavel is equipped with an immobilizer system, ensure that the key you are using is programmed correctly and recognized by the system. Consult your owner's manual for specific instructions on the immobilizer system.
If the issue persists after these steps, it is recommended to consult a professional Ducati technician or authorized Ducati service center. They will have the expertise and specialized diagnostic equipment to diagnose and resolve the problem with your 2016 Ducati X Diavel.

Ducati X diavel doesn't want to start it only cranks the engine please help
Go back to basics to figure this out. An engine needs 3 things to start and run. Air, Fuel and Spark. Remove any one of these and it won't start. Try this.
What EXACTLY does it do when you press the start button
-Nothing at all or a slow sluggish crank is most likely a flat or bad battery issue. Charge or replace the battery.
Cranking at normal speed but not trying to start is possibly a spark supply issue. Test for spark at the plugs and work through the ignition from there.
Cranking, coughing and trying but won't idle is commonly a fuel supply issue. Check you actually have fuel in the tank. Yes, I've made that mistake! I've also forgotten to open the fuel valve. Check you are getting fuel to the cylinders. A way to do this is by removing 1 plug wire and cranking the engine for 1 to 2 seconds. Remove the spark plug on that side and sniff it. A working set up and it'll smell of fuel. Refit the plug and the wire and repeat this for the other cylinder. From there work backwards through the fuel system checking the injector, fuel pump and the fuel pipe lines.

I lost my key hot wire 2000 ducati monster
You may likely have to program a new key as it has a chip. The SBB key programmer on Ebay is great for cars but not sure about bikes but perhaps! Make sure your model is available in the indications given by the SBB programmer site on Ebay.

Would a 8inch pull back and 5 inch rise work for a Ducati Monster handle bars
Clearance issues aside, you need the proper mounts. If they make them, they will work, aside from tank clearance issues. If they don't make the proper kit, just don't do it. Handlebars are not something to experiment with when you're traveling down the highway at 60+ mph. Ever had a simple grip come off? Not fun, trust me.
