Hi everyone, Just like to introduce myself and say hello from Chester. I bought my MTS on 18-04-2015 (lasr saturday). Done over 300 miles using it after work and I love it BUT.............. on my last ride on it an error code came up on the screen........... Error DES Front rebound This won't clear Also rear brake feels like it is full of air, needs pumping 2-3 times before anything is there then same again next time I want to use it. Are these common problems?? Just sold my BMW R1200GS Te to buy this and now I'm wondering if I did the right thing. I've always wanted a Duke but was afraid of the reliability problems but thought What the hell I love them so take a punt! Any Advise???
Hi Kevin, Welcome to a great forum. Surprised at the faults!! Please add photos to your report. Rear brake on the MTS1200 is normally great now. No DES errors reported on the fronts. More to follow once we've seen your evidential pictures.
Hello and welcome into the mad house Watch out for the locals they are crazy You may like to post your questions in the relevant part of the forum that way they don't get lost in the banter and I keep out of trouble Enjoy
Sorry I misunderstood. Yes the backs do need a good bleed, I'll add the link to the relevant post or search bleeding in the multitrada section. Des error, check the little connectors on the top of each fork leg they can come loose.
Yes you did the right thing getting her It's red I take it The world of Ducati ownership has it's quirks a bit like the locals
Sorry to dissapoint you but it's WHITE!!! I should fit in nicely, not quite the full shilling can't be, seeing I've just bought a Ducati!
Pm me for my mobile. A chat can save lots of typing and prevents trolling, which sady seems to have become the norm for one member.
Removed front fork wiring connections from top of forks and error has cleared. Thanks Aircon!! Must say they're a poor connection , don't seem to lock in place.
Hi Bradders, first thing I did was remove battery terminals to reset system but that didnt work and put mph to kph, galllon to litres and disabled the DTC. Des front rebound fault was still there. After Aircon's advice to try dissconnecting and reconnecting the cables into the top of the forks it has started working fine, took it out this miorning and no problems. I'm a happy bunny!!
