1st Time Ducati Owner

Discussion in 'Newbies Hangout' started by Danbolger, Jul 11, 2025.

  1. Hi guys, first time I've owned a ducati so just joined. I've bought a 959 ex tri options bike for track and have a few questions.

    1. There's no left hand switchgear fitted, I assume this is needed for swapping the electronic settings?

    2. The bike has an irc blipper, any ideas if the can be changed to race shift (ie where I'm likely to find a manual)

    3. It's got a full akra system, is there an easy way to see if the bike has the upmap fitted?

    4. I've got the akra baffles, who is it I need to speak to for modified ones?

    5. Lastly just been over the bike and there no air filter or frame? That it fits to, any ideas where I can get that?

    Sorry for all the questions in one go..

    Cheers

  2. the air filter is under the petrol tank, take it off, theres your "frame"

  3. Yeah I've had the tank off, however there no filter and looking online the panel filter fits on a frame, that's not there either

  6. Hi.
    1. Yes correct
    2. Dunno
    3. When you switch bike on if display says Race Evo or similar it has the Ducati upmap. If not it may have a third party map or no map at all
    4. Pipewerks do a closed end baffle for these systems
    5. Your local dealer.

    Enjoy.
     
  7. Perfect thanks
