Anyone locate a shop manual yet (disassembly/assembly, torque settings, etc.)?

There's no such thing available from Ducati, all of our service manuals for the new bikes are part of the Ducati Service System and no longer provided separately in a book or CD like they used to be. If you need torque specs, here are some basics for the 899 on common items:

·​

​

​

​

RH and LH front brake disc screws: 30 Nm ± 5%​

·​

​

​

​

rear brake disc screws: 25 Nm ± 5%​

·​

​

​

​

front brake calipers screws: 45 Nm ± 5%​

·​

​

​

​

rear brake caliper screws: 25 Nm ± 5%​

·​

​

​

​

front wheel nut: 63 Nm ± 5%​

·​

​

​

​

rear wheel shaft nut: 180 Nm ± 5%​

·​

​

​

​

final drive front sprocket nut: 55 Nm ± 5%​

·​

​

​

​

final drive rear sprocket nuts: 44 Nm ± 5%​

·​

​

​

​

engine-to-frame fasteners: 45 Nm ± 5%​

·​

​

​

​

swingarm shaft fastener: 100 Nm ± 5%​

·​

​

​

​

spark plugs: 12 Nm ± 10%​

· water-oil exchanger retaining screws: 13 Nm ± 10%

Thanks Jarel. I'll take what I can get.

How are owners supposed to work on their 899 without a service manual? How are non Ducati shops supposed to work on these bikes? I like the peace of mind of being able to look at a service manual and double check the torque settings.

I'm very disappointed Ducati did this.

I'm seeing 25nm for the front brake calipers in the manual.

But it also says 45nm in the torque table.

Which would you go with?

For the front caliper bolts, it's 45Nm:
