2015 Ducati Superbike 1299 Panigale S Owners Manual - Page 88

The choice of level setting depends greatly on the riders' experience and ability to control wheelies on their own. Levels 1, 2 and 3 require a great experience to ensure proper control. Level depends on type of track If the track/path features bends where out speed and gear are low, a lower level will be necessary; while a track/path with faster bends will allow the use of a higher level setting. If changes occur in the circuit characteristics, and the level setting is no longer suitable, switch to the next level up or down and proceed to determine the best setting (e.g. if with level 7 the DWC intervention seems excessive, switch to level 6; alternatively, if on level 7 you cannot perceive any DWC intervention, switch to level 8). Tips for use on the track We recommend that level 8 be used for a couple of full laps in order to get used to the system. Then try levels 7, 6, etc., in succession until you identify the DWC sensitivity level that suits you best (always try each level for at least two laps to allow the tires to warm up). Tips for use on the road Activate the DWC, select level 8 and ride the motorcycle in your usual style; if the level of DWC sensitivity seems excessive, try reducing the setting to level 7, 6, etc., until you find the level that suits you best. 86
