Hi. I have noticed on the right hand side some black marks to the lower engine case. Most probably from my textiles rubbing against the hot metal. Does anyone know how to get them off?
It is bad quality Ducati painting and it is scratched paint, not leftovers from boot. I got the same and asked Ducati to Change that part (clutch cover) under warranty. They did and now it is fine (I also changed the boots so maybe this ones are more gentle)
Mine looked like this after about 800 miles. My dealer had the engine casing replaced as a goodwill gesture by Ducati.
Try sticking some Helicopter tape to the casting.. (Thin film tank protector) On my first Multi - this worked well.... on the second one - the casting was too rough and it would not stick..
you need some HS8671 https://www.selfadhesive.co.uk/3m-8671-hs-polyurethane-100mm-1mtr.html Cut to shape and if gets dirty just cut another bit, been using on several Multis and it has always stuck fast so far.
